i let it sit overnight and in the morning the oil reading is spot on.
I'm still confused as to what is going on? I took my car to auto-X and was kept running a good 45 minutes straight on 90 second courses. I just my oil ever finish and it would be about half point. when finally cool, it'll be like 3mm away from full.
