I put on a thousand miles since my last oil change so according to my owners manual it is good, although after i got my oil changed i don't know how high on the dip stick it was. So I guess I'll just watch it but I do't think its anything for me to worry about. Hell I hit my 3 month mark next month around this time so I wont get the full milage out of it. I have 7400 miles on my car i think if it was burning i would have known it by now. If anyone knows where on the dip stick the oils is around after a change let me know please.
If your oil is in-between the holes, you need to add oil.

Are you sure about this? In the manual it says between the holes is normal level and no top off required

Make sure you engine is warmed up, not cold, when you check the oil!
