    Original dip stick length

    As title states. Popped the original doing the oil pan gasket previously. Only wire style I pulled from a maxima was too long @ 21.5" other styles were the metal strip.

    Original appears to be 17.5", can anyone confirm. Or better yet list a model with interchangeable dipsticks.

    Much appreciated

    Yeah, i can later today after work. They might frown on me pulling out my stick and measuring it while i'm clocked in.

    I'd really appreciate it and by bottom of the upper plug I meant here (pic)

    There should also be a P/N stamped on the bottom tab.

    Pulled from my 84T motor, and verified with one from an 88T motor: 432mm




    For shits and giggles, I also measured one from a VG30 out of a 90 M30 with the dipstick on the passenger side and it was 443mm
