Can't reach oil dipstick


Recommended Posts

Posted

I went to check the oil in my 2016 Yukon Denali and I can't reach the oil dipstick! It's far back and low towards the firewall. Barely able to reach the oil fill cap also. I've never ran into this before in all the GM vehicles I've owned. I had to go grab a stool just to reach the dipstick. Who was the engineer that designed this cluster? If you are over 5'8" you will have little problem except that you are going to have to be careful not to scratch the paint on the front fender when leaning over trying to get the dipstick out. Carefull of zippers on your clothes.

I just changed the oil on my sons 2015 Silverado and its exactly as you describe. How in the world does this kind of crap get put into production? I am 6'1" and its a stretch to lean over and not rub the fender to just check the oil!!
