Fair point. I do keep half a quart and a funnel in the trunk incase it's low , but recently I've neglected to check and refill, got too many things on my mind.

Normally I don't lose much between oil changes, I've checked the seals when changing the oil yesterday and it didn't seem to have leaks. I did see some some residual oil on the oil change nut, so that could be why it was losing more oil than normal. New washer changed so hopefully it's good now.
