wheres my dipstick !
hi all, my owners manual states i should have a manual gearbox dipstick on my 2001 bugeye impreza gx non turbo but after several checks it cant be found.
Does my model have a manual transmission dipstick ?

It should show you in the handbook, but its basically at the back, near centre (as its above the gearbox) just offset to the left a little
its metal with a loop, not brightly coloured so hard to see sometimes

You should have one, just look for the pipe if you cannot see the stick itself

The airbox? Do you mean the intercooler? It's not under any airbox........

The OP has got a N/A Impreza hence the 'airbox' instead of the Interwarmer.
