Oil Dipsticks - Not All Equally Accessable

I had to check the oil level on my mom's car and also my car.

Mom's car, super easy. The access to the dip stick is unblocked and you just have to pull the dipstick straight out.


On my car.... not so much. The air intake is directly in the straight path for pulling out the dipstick. So, you have to pull it out and put it back in from an angle. If you look carefully, they had to put in some guides to aid in putting the dipstick back in. What a pain.
