Had the oil changed at 938 miles, I'm at 1,199 now and just ordered a drivers side oil separator to compliment the passenger side one I already have (JLT). Didn't notice much oil accumulation after initially installing the passenger side separator and running it for about 400-500 miles, but decided I'd check it again tonight and the oil while I'm at it. There wasn't a "ton" of oil in the separator, but way more than I've seen before (maybe 1-1.5 ounces). When I checked the oil however, I saw what I tried to capture in the pictures below. The car has sat for about 2 weeks now (traveling for work, no time to get out), so could it have just drained every ounce of oil known to man here or am I reading this dipstick right and I'm 4-5 quarts high? Never even thought to check it at the dealership, kicking myself now. Just rechecked the paperwork and confirmed it says 10 quarts and a filter.
The area between the dots on the hash mark actually isn't solid oil, it's like half covering that area, but for 4 inches or more above that top dot is solid oil. Please tell me I'm crazy here...
