Oil level indicates loss

X2 and did you factor in the oil filter(s)? Just a thought....

Yeah, I would get it to register correct today and watch it closely.
More than 1/2 quart consumption per 1000 miles is cause for concern.
Then again the dipstick and/or tube length may be wrong.
Might be best to just drain it and start from scratch.
Fill it to proper volume and check the measuring stick.
