But surely the electronic dipsticks are improving? I've become familiar with mine and now I trust it... it showed 'low' yesterday so I added 0.25L and today it shows 'OK'. Good enough for me and I know that even if I can't be bothered to check it regularly then it'll give me the 'add 0.5L' warning message as and when necessary (like many early VEA models mine does consume some oil between changes).
