engine oil level
so i have read the other oil level threads and people say to check the level in the cold
i changed my oil yesterday, so this morning before starting the car i checked it and it was about in the middle of the 2 holes. about 2 hours after getting to work i checked again before going to lunch and it was at the top hole. just wondering if you read high after driving? |

reading the oil level is pretty hard on the dip stick. I don't get a clear cut line on my stick so I just see where the lowest point is. sometimes it's extremely slanted or just a 2mm spike up.
