Did my first oil change on the BRZ today at 5,909 miles. Will probably change again at 10,000 miles, and settle into 5000 mile intervals afterwards. By the time I checked my oil level for the first time on the car, it was just slightly below the second hole (full mark) on the dipstick. I figured it might be burning a little, since it's new, but it never changed after that. So I put in about 5.8 quarts today, and what do you know, it's right below the second hole again. I added what was necessary to get it right to the full mark and it turned out to be about 6.25 quarts. I assume they probably measure out 5.8 quarts at the factory during initial fill. So I wonder if it really needs 6.25, or if I just got a short dipstick (setting myself up with that one). My garage is level, and the dipstick was all the way pushed in. What have others found?
