Oil level 2 readings
I have noticed that the oil level on the dipstick shows 2 different levels when I check it, full on one side 1/2 quart low on the other side. Non-Z51 cold or hot does not matter. Anyone else see this. It has been the same level since I picked it up level has not changed.

Mine is the same way. Wish I knew what the story is.

Dipstick issues
I have exactly the same problem. My dipstick reads full on the engine side and almost a quart low on the fender side. So far, I cannot get anyone to tell me whether the high side or low side reading is correct.
This is an engineering problem, and the owner's handbook does not deal with it. So far, my dealer is giving me very unhelpful answers. Has anyone changed the oil and noted whether the high or low side reading is correct? |

I will be getting my oil changed this Sat. for the 1st time and will post what my reading is then. But my readings have always been full on one side 1/2 qt. low on the other side since car was delivered in Sept. |

If you rotate the dipstick before removal, I believe you eliminate this problem. I assume the reading after this is an accurate one.

It's in the Owner's Manual... Chapter 9-5 & 9-6 "Track Events and Competitive Driving". :thumbsup:

Just telling you what the owner's manual said.
I'm pretty sure it has something to do with racing. |
