Just pull out the dip stick. If the oil is Black and thicker than normal leave the car alone cause you don't want that one. Make sure the engine is warmed up first.

fiber optics are used on CAN BUS ( fly by wire ) is there still such a thing as sludge?? if a car was using synthetic oil as they say then this will never happen and an old story ( synthetic oil does not sludge ) unless you did 3 times the specs on change

HAHA, where have you been for like the last 4 or so years, and btw he means a borescope (sp?)

also, not all CAN BUS systems have fiber optics
