I warmed up the BRZ engine to near operating temperature. Then let the vehicle sit turned off for 10 minutes on our flat driveway. Then I checked the oil level.

Man this dipstick has to be the most difficult to read of all my vehicles. Probably the hot oil didn't help.

Here are two photos showing each side of the dipstick, with green line showing where the oil appeared to reach. Sorry one ended up blurry. I dipped and cleaned the dipstick many times (at least 20) and these photos represent generally the reading.

To me oil level seems too high. Normally on all my other vehicles current and past, I had the oil level between the high/low marks (generally near but not past the high mark).

I'm assuming those two holes in the dipstick represent the high/low marks?
