One more oil level thing to remember is that one should check the oil after the car has been sitting (not running) for a half hour or first thing in the morning when you go out to the car (before you turn over the engine).

The digital display is quite accurate if used properly. Before I knew each bar represented a cup of oil, I was dumping in a half quart and overfilling it, but not realizing it because I wasn't letting it sit with the engine off for 30 minutes to check the level.

Word up.
