So the dipstick on the 2015 ST-2 is impossible to read after an oil change, never had any issues with an oil dipstick in the past, but reading from this dipstick is very unreliable, especially if the oil is ultra clear and very runny.
So swapped the original Fiesta St-2 Dipstick from the DIPSTICK 2013-2017 RV14 to a flat blade alternative supplied by Quinton Hazell QOD165.
Both are same length, and same fit in dipstick engine hole, but the Quinton Hazell QOD165 is more consistant with oil level readings.

I did read that Ford introduced a new Dipstick for the Fiesta ST in 2017 (BM5Z-6750-C) but online reviews were not encouraging as design was still a rod type design, so I decided to stick with the flat blade option and glad I did.
