OP, if your fittings are top up, you're the one at fault for giving them 6 quarts, and that explains why it isn't "as clean". If they are fittings down, you should test oil levels almost immediately after turning the car off

My fitting are facing up, which is how they are supposed to according to z1. With them facing downward it will always give you inaccurate readings. I never had a issue before, no matter when I checked my oil. It would always give me the same reading. According to Z1 with this oil cooler, it take about 6 quarts during oil changes, so I can not see how I was at fault for giving them 6 quarts.
