2004 Chevrolet SSR Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the Dipstick Tube on 2004 Chevrolet SSR?

  A: You need to start the replacement by removing both the oil level indicator then the oil level indicator tube bolt. Remove the oil level indicator tube from its position on the engine block while checking that the o-ring remains usable before comprehensive inspection. Clean engine oil should be used to lubricate the o-ring seal before it is placed onto the oil level indicator tube. The vehicle needs to be raised while you position the oil level indicator tube in its proper location behind the Exhaust Manifold. Insert the oil level indicator tube into the block keeping its collar level with the block and lower the vehicle. Very first install the oil level indicator tube bolt while tightening it to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.) before mounting the oil level indicator to the tube.
