My car doesn't but oil, but getting an accurate reading from the dipstick is a PITA compared to my other cars.

I find it no different than any other car I have ever had. I have always scored the dipstick horizontally with a piece of sandpaper though so maybe all my other cars sucked and I just didn't know.

My MINI used half a quart after driving the twisties for half a day. My BRZ has used none at all.

I don't have any oil consumption after 30k on the odo, and I track it regularly and otherwise beat the piss out of it.

I always overfill my car by half a quart since i got oil cooler.......O.o......
So it's always quite a bit higher then the 2nd dot... I think it's causing a bit of oil leak from having too much oil thou? @Tcoat |

Adding a cooler does not change where the full mark should be. Unless somehow you cooler is mounted high and drains back into the sump. |

You should always check your oil when hot. When your oil is hot the thermostat will be open on your sandwich plate which means everything is filled with oil.
