I know it sounds dumb but i questioned the dealer about it and they said it is normal with these cars...?

Eventually I will start working on this car myself, but as long as I have extended warranty I take it to the stealer/dealer. Just wanted to get yall's opinion since yall indeed know mare that the local dealership when it comes to out vehicles. Thanks for the help in advance. - Lee
Not normal and check on your dipstick which has to be more reliable than a gage.
