Subject:      Effects of vehicles off level on Oil stick
Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Volks,

My oil level can show more than 1/2 qt difference when the van is parked
front end up or rear end up.  I'm not talking about really steep hill
parking, just enough so the side door will tend to slide open or closed
instead of staying still.  This seems like a huge change, much more than any
other vehicle I remember but I'm paying very close attention to oil level
[still trying to get new rings to seat] so maybe that's why I notice it.

Does this sound like your experience?

Mike
