This is contrary to the manual and common bad advice on here for the past 5 years. You should in at least 1/2qt increments because the stupid e-dipstick could get confused with smaller amounts. Also adding too much oil can cause engine damage as well. That's why I always wait till it says to add 1+ and I will add 1/2 then check level before I add another 1/2.
