I have a 2002 Cooper-s and my motor oil stick broke and til I got a new one I used a hanger metal to check my oil level.Since I did that I can't read the level anymore.The stick shows oil over the marks.I'm afraid I damaged something but don't know what.Can anyone help me with this problem?Thanks.

Are you saying the new dipstick reads over-full? If so, drain the engine oil, add the specified amount, then recheck. It may have been overfilled.

I think you should change the engine oil first, then you check whether it performing or not. You can ask for mechanic help and that will help you to solve your problem.
