Where is the standard position of the car oil dipstick?

The standard position of the car oil dipstick is about 3 centimeters from the top of the dipstick. The function of the oil dipstick is to measure the static liquid level height of the oil, thereby reflecting whether the engine oil level is within the normal range. The correct steps to check the oil level: 1. Place the vehicle on a flat surface, turn off the engine, and wait for 15 minutes to allow the oil to flow back into the oil pan; 2. Take out the oil dipstick for the first time, wipe it clean, and slowly reinsert it, ensuring that the dipstick reaches the bottom of the oil pan; 3. Take out the oil dipstick again and check the oil level. If the oil level is within the upper and lower limits of the dipstick, it is normal. If it is above the upper limit, some oil needs to be drained. If the oil level is below the lower limit, the corresponding amount of oil needs to be added.
