wow!!!! Yes I have the 3.8L whish is same thing I guess, no stick to check tans oil!
SO I guess I have to pay a bunch of money just to know if it is ok?

I just bought vehicle and it has 112000 KM, I gusss previous owener never flushed the oil, instead of paying to check it would it be better to flush oil anyway? Or is it later in milage I should do that?
