2015 S60 motor oil question

Aug 29, 2017 1 Replies

My daughter purchased a 2015 S60 from our local Volvo dealer. She has had the vehicle for 2 months now and I recently checked her oil level and was surprised and confused by the reish brown staining on the lower tip of the dipstick and around the top of the diptube. I was able to remove the staining but question why it would occur. The dealer service people said not to worry - not a problem. Any thoughts on this question?

Plastic degradation of the tip? Let's hope traces of the molten plastic got caught in the oil filter.
