Maybe others experience this. I only notice it on my daughters '08 CRV currently with 236k on it. I don't know if there some seal or something odd/worn allowing oil more up the dipstick tube. It has done this since we got it from my sister 4 years ago.
I check oil on all my cars when I fill them with gas which is every time I buy gas. No $20 things. My routine is pull into gas station, shut down motor, release hood latch and fuel fill door. I then pop the hood and pull the dipstick and wipe it off, leaving the dipstick out while I fill up. This allows any oil in tube to drip down so I can check level properly. It takes me a couple minutes to fill up, I check oil level and it is in normal range.
When I first pull the dipstick, the oil is all the way to the top by handle/O-rings. PCV was changed recently (old one still rattled pretty good), vehicle does not burn or leak any noticeable amount of oil. As I said in past posts I wipe off more oil from dipstick than it uses. OCI's drain correct amount and get refilled with correct amount. Filters have bene pretty much Fram XG7317 or factory Honda. Oil does not come out from top of tube, nothing pushes past the Orings on handle.
This is about 4000k miles on the oil after after I filled up with gas per above. Oil is 1qt HPL 5W-30 and some PP 5W-30 and Euro L 5W-30.
