Correct, there is no one dipstick that will fit all vehicles. What you need is a dipstick that is the correct length. If you have lost yours, then go to your local salvage yard and find a car with the same engine. Ford Contour, Mercury Mystique, Ford Mondero, are all the same. Look for one with the same engine, either the 2.0 or 2.5. The dipstick from any of these will fit. Another alternative is to get any dipstick that will actually fit and be long enough. Drain your oil and change the filter. Add the correct amount of oil that is required for an oil & filter change. Start the engine and run for 1 minute. Shut the engine off, Wait one hour and check the level on the dip stick you are using. Mark the level of the oil on that stick, and use that as the full mark. This way you can make your own dipstick.
