If you can, get under your car..check to see where the oil is coming from. You might have a bad gasket, or loose drain plug. Aslo, have you bottomed out recently? That could have something to do with it. If you see where the oil is coming from, take it to a shop and have them check it out. As far as affecting your mileage or performance, you shouldn't have any problems, just make sure you check your oil level every day for a week, then if you don't have it fixed by then, check weekly. Hope this helps and good luck to ya.
