popping off

--- Quote from: "SnakeLogic" ---The level check stick for my auto transmission oil level (300 Tdi Disco) keeps popping off.  It works its way out about an inch or two.  I was concerned that this would open up the possibility of foreign material (mud, bugs, sand) getting in.  I've since rigged up a clamp to hold it in place.  

So my question is:  Was it coming loose just due to vibration, or was it a symptom of some larger problem?  My dealer says it was no problem at all, but I'm skeptical.

As always, thanks for the help.

Mine also does the same, give it a few days and it works its way out. The breather is clear, checked that whilst also extending breather pipe.

Have finally, after trying different methods, resorted to fitting a cable tie around the clamping lugs on the top of the dipstick.
