I'm a little bit old school and while I HAVE to trust the electronic oil level meter is correct, I never have to worry about whether or not my eyeballs have failed while looking at the level on a dipstick.

Without a dipstick, you can't really know if the oil was changed during a service.

There are ways, eg, mark the oil filter, or drain bolt/washer, to see if it was removed. Unlikely that these would remain undisturbed with a proper oil service.

2013 Turbo >> Vehicle stationary and on a level surface, engine temp at least 140F, screen will not read oil level if oil temp is low, engine must be idling. Scroll to oil >Measure oil level< timer will count down then the screen will give a visual of the oil level.
