My oil dipstick for 2005 xc90 t6 broke too. I am far from a dealer and just wanna use after market stick which you can adjust length. Can anyone with same vehicle measure dipstick length for me. Much appreciated.

Not sure what yours look like but depending on where it is broken you maybe able to use Epoxy? Brake cleaner, 93% rubbing alcohol than Epoxy. Dry and wipe with clean paper towel besides letting air dry for several hours before Epoxy. A little heat from a hair dryer to warm (not hot) things up also before Epoxy. Going on 18 months.

Blessings,
