No, not at all.  "Wiggle" is a highly technical term, it the next stronger
thing to a "jiggle" on the SI scale of "actions to perform to loosen
over-fastened things".  Perfectly OK.

It has a large plastic looking ring/ sleeve around the top, which stops the
dipstick going into the oil pan too far, but this makes the dipstick sit on
top of the engine case, but it is loose and wiggles around.  Without it,
the dipstick goes into the pan, but it is too long and hits the oil pan and
wiggles around....??

Does that make sense, sorry about my lack of technical jargon...!
