I was adding a liter of oil per 5k miles for about the first 15k miles on the car. Since my last oil change, about 8000 miles ago, the oil indicator never moved until last week and finally showed 1/4 quart low. Oil consumption seems to have slowed a lot as the motor has broken in, not a bad thing. It never occurred to me that there may be an e-dipstick failure.
I would hope the car would see a fault rather than get a perfect full reading in the event of a failure.
