- might be me or do the Subaru dip sticks read different on each side, it reads full on one side and half full on the other, which is the right one, car is perfectly flat its in me garage and its cold
 has your car still got the original hawk eye sump? if so it shud hav a circle bit to put ya finger in to pull it out, turn the dip stick so that is pointing towards the front of the engine, as you pull the dip stick out read the side that is facing the alternator!! | |

| the reason the dipstick reads different on the other side is because the dipstick enters the sump at about 45 degree. (all models the same) | |
