Just got my RX8 VELOCITY RED, R/B, 6 disc, GT. Fabulous! To quote Emerson Fittipaldi "the balance is fantastc". An annoyng rattle developed and thank the LORD it turned out to be my sunglasses in the overhead console. Has anyone noticed how the adonized coating on the dipstick is slightly flaking. I hope this crap is caught in the filter before getting to the apex seals. Additionally, the stick is very hard to read, the same color as new oil. Any safe dye to use or just wait until a few more miles blackens the oil a bit?
