I recently had the oil min light come on while I was on a road trip and stopped and added a 1 qt bottle of 5w40. I feel dumb, but I'm having trouble reading the dipstick on this car because it seems like it reads just a bit different every time I take it out (sometimes there's a little oil on the wired part of the dipstick). It looks to be a bit over the max fill line from what I see, should I drain some? I've attached pics below of what I'm talking about, any help would be appreciated.
