Tried that too...Do you turn it counterclockwise or clockwise, and how far do you have to turn it? Don't mean to sound stupid, I know a little about cars, I just don't want to break the handle...

In my 3.0 the dipstick gets very tight... it seems like the oring on it forms a tight seal (almost too tight) during the week of driving. I check the oil once a week, and it is pretty hard to pull it out the first time around (compared to other cars that I have had), but once it is out, placing it back in and out again is fairly easy... until the next oil check.

OK, I'll try it again tomorrow when I can see. Yeah, with all of my other vehicles, it usually comes out pretty easy, that's why I was scared to pull too hard.
