Unless one of your firends is ------- with you by cutting your dipstick :P or changing it, I would trust it. :-\ Of course this is assuming the holder is all the way in. You wouldn't happen to have a crank scraper, would you?

Re: figure this ish out!!!
 

car is always in a locked garage so i know no one cut my dipstick ;D and like i said no motor problems what so ever, i even let it idle in my garage for about 5 mins listening for anything out of the ordinary and it sounded perfect

Re: figure this ish out!!!
 

I've checked my oil plenty of times in my old cars and found a dry dipstick, but the motor still ran fine and showed no signs of low oil. VTEC is a ----- if the oil pressure is low, but you say it's good....there is probably just enough oil in it to supply enough oil pressure. ??? I would just add a quart or two and see what happens. Are you checking while it's hot, warm, or cold? How long after the motor is shut off are you checking it?

checked cold and warm

i already put two quarts in and it still reads dry, if it somehow does still have all the oil in it i dont want to overfill it and damage something.. i checked about 30 seconds after the motor was off, 5 mins after the motor was off, and just after putting in the new oil, and there wasnt any sign of oil on the stick

Re: figure this ish out!!!
 

I would be more worried about running it so low on fluid that it won't register on the dipstick. :X There is a plug on the bottom of the motor that allows you to drain oil if you overfill. :P

i know i cant be leaking, but i'll drain it anyway in a bit and see how much i have.. i just dont understand how i could supposedly have no oil, but have perfect pressure, no motor problems, and even have vtec engageing

Re: figure this ish out!!!
 

I have had many cars come in for oil changes that have had less then 1/2 a quart in both the pan and filter combined, no problems to speak of :l
