   Depends on how many miles you do in a week and whether your car is using excess amounts of oil. My engine oil level hasnt really dropped for 3000 miles since my last service.

   just stick some cheap crap in it to get you by, if its that low i would since its going to have a service it shouldnt really effect the engine unless if you do high mileage.
