Bob,
Are you sure that the oil has all drained back into the sump?  When I 
have been traveling with the TD, I check the oil level in the morning 
after it has all drained back to the sump.  Otherwise, I get a false low 
reading.  If, as you said the oil is there, but you just can't read it 
on the dip stick (because it is chromed), try laying the dipstick on a 
paper towel.  The towel will turn dark where the oil is and then you can 
read it.
Good luck,
Dave
