Apologies for necro-ing a very old thread but: the part number is actually #140 589 15 21 00 in full

I'm pointing it out, as I searched about and couldn't quite confirm whether i had the right dipstick after all. scratching my head a few hours and whatnot.

it'll possibly save some time for anyone in the future searching the forum for info etc etc

and i'll just leave these links to said part here:

And again, sorry for bumping the thread, but it should help others in the future, i feel :p

thx.
