I just had this problem about 2 weeks ago. Oil was everywhere. I bought a brand new dipstick and went out for a beating and it did the same dam thing. Oil was everywhere. I ended up putting a tiny 1/4" hose clamp around the dipstick tube with a wire tucked into the clamp. Then i wrapped the other end of the wire around the dipstick handle. It AIN'T coming out now!!! Just don't wrap it around handle too many times so that it becomes a job to check the oil.
