    I totaled my last 2003 but just bought a replacement. Same year, model, etc.

    The dipstick for the Trans is different than my last 2003. It's a lot shorter. I don't know if it's aftermarket or not and my trans threw a code. Fun.

    I need to make sure my trans fluid level is correct and not off because of some chincy aftermarket dipstick.

    Can anyone with a 2003 V6 4wd and auto trans pull their dipstick and measure how far from the bottom of the handle the fill level marking are. I posted pics of mine in the Norcal section at this post. I'm wondering if someone can measure the same way and get back to me ASAP:

    C'mon, no one can help a bro out? It'll just take 5 minutes!

    My trans threw a code that either means some sh*t is f-ed up or the level is off. An OE dipstick is $30 from the stealership which will be a waste, if mine is actually good.

    Help! Help!
