I've done the first oil and filter change myself and could it just be a case of fill the sump with new oil until it comes up to the lower end of the original dipstick.
Seems like a load of bollocks if it's got to go to a stealer for the job. Can the replacement be bought from Ford instead?
Is that not your warranty gone?
How will they find out if I don't tell them? I used the Castrol oil and genuine Ford filter. Would they refuse to sell me an upgrade dipstick on the grounds that they can only be fitted by them? I'll phone them and find out if no-one on this forum knows.
