Product Description

Keep your Mercedes-Benz engine running smoothly by ensuring accurate oil level readings with this Arrowhead dipstick, designed specifically for engine oil checks. The dipstick features a flexible metal cable and a red pull handle, making it easy to use when checking engine oil levels during routine maintenance. This part is suitable for select Mercedes-Benz models, including certain C-Class, E-Class, CLK, and SLK variants equipped with the M271 engine.
