rx8 oil problem
Hi I am experiencing problems with the oil in my 8. I only drive it three times a week and check the oil once or twice out of the week. The last time I checked I was last friday and the oil was at the top line. I havent drove it since last wednesday and I checked thr oil today and it was at 3/4. Is it possible to burn oil while sitting in a garage? There is no puddlss by the way

It's probably an error between the ground and the dipstick.
