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

Could anyone pull their stick and measure it from bottom of plug cap to bottom of measuring tab please?

Yeah, i can later today after work. They might frown on me pulling out my stick and measuring it while i'm clocked in. [archived image: smile.png]

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
