The dipstick is missing as the car was purchased used and didn't come with one. Does anyone know the OEM part# for it? While I am sure it is supposed to have one, there does not appear to be a part# for it.

 

Here: 31080-JA500

 

Thank you for the response. However, that part# corresponds to the pipe, not the gauge/dipstick.

 

google Maxima Dipstick....look at Ebay...done lol....$20.95 took me ten seconds, enjoy lol

 

Here: 31086-JA500

 

Actually, you should get it for half that price at a good oem online part store.

 

Yep $10 found in no time lol

 

go to the local automotive recycling center, or scrap yard, get a used one for less than $4

 

Did you try to get one from your local dealership. For something that is not expensive it's a lot easier than chasing prices and risking it's not the right part by shopping the internet and paying shipping charges.

 

I'd be more concerned about the transmission condition given no dipstick and whatever crap can fall down into it.

 

That would be my concern too!

 

I used part# 31086-JA00A at the local dealer for $19... and change with tax after being given that information. The dealer wanted to sell the "cap", which does not include the dipstick. Thanks for everyone's input.
