I watched your videos and where did you get the transmission dipstick with the plastic tip reader? This would make it easier to read.

Thanks

Good morning,

It depends on the manufacturer whether they have that plastic tip.

Most of them do not have it.

I attached the tube from rock auto. It looks like it may have that tip but the best way to tell is to call them directly and ask them.
