The only other thing I can think of, is the engine oil level.

After my last oil change, I noticed that the electronic oil level is above the max level, BUT from the dipstick, the oil level is ONLY at the max mark (or slightly below).

Which one do I trust ?? My mechanic claims that the dipstick is the more accurate one.... maybe he just didn't want to have to mess with releasing some oil..

I presume too much oil may cause more blow-by ? (amongst other things)
