Same here.
You can see the Baleno dipstick on the left, just next to the oil pickup tube.

Haha. I'm thinking the sump has been modified so would show a different reading using the baleno one. |

Whichever one shows full when you put it in and you have the correct amount of oil in the engine? |

It only works IF he has one that reads right at the correct level. IF you want to do it dodgy, fill the thing up and then mark the dipstick as full level, start it so it fills the filter (and therefore takes some out) and mark that as your low level? or just fill it up with one litre less and make that low oil level, then put the other litre in and make that high level? OR because you've got a modified sump and now no longer know what it should hold, you have to wing the whole shebang! |

if it sits the same height in the block it will be correct as you are using the matching sump to the stick. put 3.5lt of oil or what ever sierras take and see but it should be right |

to use a sierra stick you need to use the sierra tube what sump and pickup did you use? if the oil pickup it the same height as in a baleno and the sump about the same depth use the baleno one |
