Tech displaced dipstick (don’t ask); Ordered a replacement OEM dipstick, want to check the oil level before the part arrives. probably will use a wire clothes hanger. How long is the OEM oil dipstick?
Many thanks!

Your info shows you have a LS430, they aren't the same length. Do you really mean LS460. If I was at home I would go out and measure mine for you. Hopefully someone can help.
Just bought a 2010 LS460; had it delivered from the South here. Dealer’s photos show dipstick in place; it’s now gone. They probably have it, but it’s the Easter weekend.
I’m hesitant to drive the car, not having checked the oil level prior. As I wrote above, I ordered an OEM dipstick.
So, how long is the LS460 engine oil dipstick?
This is an AWD dipstick, located towards the right rear of engine. May or may not be the same length as RWD...did you look around the engine compartment to see if it just missed the tube going back in ?
I did. Also had to change the radiator + hoses, plugs and did a complete brake job. Transmission shifted a bit harsh, replaced transmission fluid, now it drives like a new car, aside from the noisy a/c motor and the yellow-tinted touch display screen (I read that these can be sent out to be rebuilt). The a/c motor replacement is probably at least $1000.

My 07 ls460L RWD just went over 100k miles. It does have a lil lurch to the shift sometimes especially from park to drive. Do you think a trans fluid replacement would help those symptoms? Or should i have it done at 100k either way?
