Auto gearbox oil

Hi, I am finding it difficult to check the oil level on my Mk1 1.6 auto as when the dip stick is withdrawn after following the check procedure there is not a defined line where the level is. Is this normal or does this indicate the oil needs replacing, the oil does not look too dirty. Dave.
