Hi all, this may seem a bit odd...but I have read many dipstick in my life but this one on my girlfriends car has me stumped.....Ford Fiesta 1.4 zetec tdci 2003, yellow dipstick but the end for measuring is round in shape and I can't seem to see any clear markings on it....Does anybody else have this dipstick or could help me out? (I might just be being stupid)

Thank you

    There should be two notches cut further up the dipstick from the bottom, the top one is MAX, the one nearer the end of the dipstick is MIN (at least it was on my 2004 plate fiesta I sold 2 months ago)
