Hey guys; I had my car on a lift to do downpipe awhile back, I did an oil change beforehand and when it was on lift I noticed oil beaded up on oil filter
I thought it was maybe leaking, so I removed filter, inspected gasket and put it back on. I lost some oil. Not sure how much
So everyday Iāve been adding like a little bit of oil. I was adding to fill to the top of hash marks completely cold.
So everyday I have inspected, this is a 4th of quart added over a week.
I have a hard time feeling like I lost half a quart of oil.
When I did oil change I did exactly 5.7 quarts (17 ecoboost)
Is the top of hash supposed to be touching or am I supposed to be in middle of the hash area cold?
The manual just says, if itās below the bottom hole add lol.
Should I leave it as is?
Iāve never removed an oil filter before before an change. I donāt think it was leaking, I think it was just residual oil from previous change on bottom of filter.

We took a road trip today... Buffalo, NY, a five hour drive. Camping out by the airport, was a beautiful day for a ride other than the relentless wind!

Same here. Filled up with 93 at the local Exxon. $3.299/gal, which was okay for where I live.
Later, I found the dipstick and checked the oil. The car has 472 miles on it, so the oil is still clean and kinda hard to see.
The dipstick is a bit of a hassle to put back, with the strut brace and all, but not as bad as I imagined.
