Dipstick tube removal

Yes it's a push fit, no the oil doesn't need draining before removing the tube. 

the tube might be in 2 halves, there's a few types on the 1.6 engine. So once you've got the bolts off that secure it to the head, it should just be a case of pulling it up. some of them are tight, but most fall out because the O rings have perished.
A moments silence please, for our brothers in the NAD-zone.
