Corsa dipstick problem
Does anyone know how to remove the oil dipstick pipe from the sump/engine block on a 2003 Corsa C 1.0 12v (Z10XE engine), as I have to remove it so that I can replace the heatshield. I've heard that the o-ring makes it hard to remove them?

Second one is my Exhaust Emission Light came on yesterday and kept on, when I had two...
