Little bit of oil on the top of the engine...

My 04 S4 with now 400 miles has a little bit of fresh oil on the top of the engine. Should I freak out and rush to the dealer or should I just keep an eye on it?

You should tighten the fill cap, and wipe off the oil.

I would never advise freaking out.

But it does raise make one wonder. I would imagine they topped it off before you picked it up and just weren't very tidy about it.

lol yea thats probably all it is....

thats part of the delivery process, check all the fluids since not all of them come full or have a likely hood in loosing a little during shipping if your car came over on a boat that was rocking a lot :-).
