Hey Scotty, unfortunately found your channel a little too late. I bought a 2009 Toyota Corolla with 89k miles. After reviewing your videos I now know that this year Corolla burns oil. I had the vehicle inspected at Firestone before I finalized the purchase and no concerns were found. I also had a second shop Car X look at it and no concerns found other than a tpm sensor failure, not replacing after watching your don’t waste your money video. I am trying to check the oil level given the concerns about burning oil and the dip stick will not come out. I don’t want to pull too hard and damage the dipstick tube. Have you seen this before and any recommendations? The vehicle was driven in North Carolina and I do not see any signs of corrosion or rust.
Appreciate all you do.
Tom
The dipstick has to be removed for you to access if the engine has the correct oil level. Pull it out with all you got.
