Dime needs no accent because in this case the accent will naturally fall on the "i" (palabra llana). In your second example neither example you gave is right. If you gave a normal familiar command of the verb "examinar" you would say "examina" (same as the Ud. form in the present tense). When you add a pronoun like "me", you want to maintain the same accent that falls on "examina" (which in this case is on the "i"). In order to maintain this emphasis you need to place a written accent mark over first "i", which gives you: "Examíname"

Se escribe "dime" (palabra llana que termina en vocal) y examíname (esdrújula).

wink Pero sí se acentúa "dímelo".
