Or dipsticks to check the oil level physically.
When I got my current car I spent half an hour looking for the dipstick to check the oil.... I gave up, looked in the manual and discovered there is no dipstick.... checking the oil level is now a menu thing in the settings of my 'infotainment' centre.
So I have to press a series of links on the touchpad until I get to oil level. Press that. It says level ok or add half a litre etc. (Its never said anything but ok)
I hate it. Im old fashioned. I like to see not only the level, but the colour and texture of the oil on the dipstick.... physically see something rather what some sensor tells me.
