I've experienced the white puffs twice now and checked the oil level both times (fearing it was too low, now too high). In both cases the level was correct, at least 3/4 of the way up the "X's". What is this??? I was getting on it pretty good both times.

I change my oil at my friend shop using the lift. The car is of course level. I drain the oil when it's still sort of hot. I let it
drain till I don't see any oil coming out. Put in new OEM honda
filter with oil in it, put some oil on the o-ring on the oil filter.
After filling the motor with oil with the dipstick reading right below H or right on the H spot, it takes about 5.5 quart. I've done this 3 times and every time is the same w/o any problems.
