Thank ya good sir! I checked it after i washed my car this weekend but since it was sitting on a slope before moving back in the garage it read around the lower O... my heart dropped and I thought F'... that is bad. checked again after my shower and it was half-wayish so that was a HUGE sigh of relief.
I'll add a cup of oil (or so) check back after to see the level and rinse& repeat until closer to the top hole. Once I get my maintanence I'll see which oil they use (or make a request to either m1 or castrol since either are readily available) and keep it consistent. Always nice to have that peace-of-mind.
