It doesnt seem like a big issue as the car is running fine. What motor doesnt make a little noise on top of that. Not any strong noises coming from the motor, just the intitial start up ticking then goes away.

That out of the way, i shouldve checked it sooner but i figured they atleast check their new cars. But at 3,000 miles right now, i checked my dipstick and the oil is leveled right below the bottom circle but above the L for Low sign. It took a full quart spilling maybe 20% without a funnel (yeah that was fun), to bring it back up to the top circle below the H for Hihg i guess sign.

Is this something I should bring up to the dealership or does Z's burn a little oil? No smoking at the tailpipe but i do notice they run hot. Mine got as far as 220F in 70-80°F weather.
