I agree with you, I've checked the oil in my friend's VQ. It's also impractical/annoying to wait 20min to do a simple oil check. I think if you do a check when car is hot, and cold, you can get an idea at the level fluctuation. As long as the oil is safely within the MIN and MAX, I think you're
.
I don't think there's a car where hot and cold makes the difference between MIN and MAX... if there was, it's a pretty shitty designed car.
. For my car, (K-series), the difference between 5min after shutoff and overnight cold is about 1/8 of a quart, which is 1/8 of the dipstick difference.
