I just brought my 04 G35x to the dealer for it's first oil change at just under 3k. I came home and parked the car last Tuesday and haven't driven it since.

I went down to my garage today to clean her up a little and to check the oil to make sure it's ok. I checked and the level is between H and L. Is this ok? Should I add 1/2 a quart? If so, it's 5w/30 correct? Ironically, the oil always seemed to be at the same mark (between H and L) before I had it changed. This is why I'm asking, I don't want to add more unless necessary. I plan on doing the next change myself. Thanks!

You're fine. Better between lines than over or under. Continue to monitor to ensure you're not having problems. As for grade, book recommends SAE 5W-30 for all ambient temps (esp below 0F). Btw, I switched to Mobil 1 Synthetic 5W-30 at 7500 oil change.

 

When you go to do the oil change, make sure you remove the bottom splash guard (filter is located under it). You can get to the filter through a hole but when I tried to do it that way, oil got all over the place! What a Fin mess!

Maybe im just clumsy but ive been removing the guard ever since.
