actually it was because the car was more then a quart low on oil, now I changed it and the reading is perfect. But I'm still not sure where the oil leak is, I checked the turbo and there is no oil drippage from it, or excessive oil in the turbine. looks like it is coming from where the oil filter is, its not a bad leak, just some drips here and there.
