After they changed Dipstick and increased amount of oil in engine, noticed drops of oil on my driveway.

Hmmm, is this what happens when you slap 2 atv engined together?

Possible the oil Filter over tightened or under tightened. I had an Oil Change done once on my New 1985 Pontiac TransAm where the person that changed filter left the old rubber ring on from previous filter in error and then cranked down new filter on top of it. Nice to see your brand new car coming out of the shop pissing oil. They pushed it back in and found the double rubber seal. Fixed problem.

y are using this motor in a RZR now too. Puts out much more HP ! Except for the oil leak, seems to be a fairly reliable motor. And power seems to be getting better as I put more miles on it !!

Yes ! Mine seems to have started following the PCV valve iodate and new dipstick and oil level increase

Oh I'm glad I love my 2015. All bugs worked out by now. Seeing the issues with the new models makes me want to keep mine. I don't need the aggravation.
