I put Mobil 1 AP 0w20 in the 3 back in May of 2017. I only drive 3 days a week to work and each way is only 6 miles. Several times during the winter after the car has sat all night I had to move it out of the driveway to let my gf get her car out. The car only sees very short trips.
The oil level has always been right at the top hole since I did the change and for several months after. Yesterday I checked it after the car sat all night and again after a drive (waiting 5 minutes) and it’s now showing to be 50% above the top hole.
The only thing I can think of is it’s moisture or fuel. I went on an hour long highway drive last week too and I guess that did not help burn any of the moisture off. There are currently 3,240 miles on the oil.
I was thinking of getting it changed. I realize color doesn’t mean much but it still looks light gold fwiw.
I’ve never had the oil level go up. It usually always goes down.
