Mine is all curved and im positive that its not suppose to look the way it does but dad insist that it is normal, i was wondering if somebody could upload pics of theirs since i cant find any online, i would upload my pics but photobucket is being gay but i will upload mine asap

 

Mine is curved (spirals actually) all the way until about 8 inches from the end.

 

nope thats how they come, i thought the same thing when i got mine

 

pics are up

 

its supposed to be spiral'd but yours is pretty bent regardless

 

If it still fits and reads correctly, I wouldn't worry about it lol

 

Umm...wow? Mine is perfectly straight except for where it gets rigid near the end. I'll upload pics tomorrow morning.

 

Yours isn't the original then :P

 

i would really appreciate the pic to compare, i dont think its reading right and thats why i wanted to know, thank you all for your input

 

Here's some pics of my '02 V6 Dipstick.
