Default Dip stick

I have found reading the oil level in my 2010 z is little tricky.
1.Find a level spot in your drive way or somewhere you have access to for future dip stick readings
2.I have found that I can read the car’s dip stick 15 to 30 minutes after engine shut off and get a completely different read when the car is totally cold.
3.After your oil change, drive car to ground zero and measure dip stick.
4.After fill ups or really after a long trip measure dip stick. You would be surprise how many different reading in places I thought were level. Reading the dip stick at the same place will give you the best read.
I made a 1,800 mile trip from Virginia to Florida(Orlando, Miami, Fort laudable) and back and my readings were a little under the H and over the top hole.
