The engine sits at an angle, and so does the dipstick, so it's not unusual for the two sides to be about 1 "x" different. Take the higher reading -- it's better to be slightly less than full than to overfill.

^ considering you have an ap2, i'm going to go ahead and tell you ap1 guys want to be on the high side, not the low side. The amount of oil this engine can burn is astonishing lol.

I always clean the dipstick. On one occasion i cleaned it, noticed it said low marker on one side and about 1/2 a quart below low on the other. cleaned it, put it back in, same thing... cleaned it, put it back in... same thing.

so if you take your car to Valvoline for oil changes, and take your car to Valvoline for top offs, why do you own bottles of oil?
