    If that's all you've run it since then it really isn't enough time to determine if there is an issue or not. You need to do the whole scenario multiple time.....check oil and water when cold, run and thoroughly warm up to operating temperature and verify that the thermostat is opening, shut off and let cool down for a couple of hours. Check oil and water levels again and hopefully they will stay the same every time. If the water level is lower each time then there is definitely an issue, and hopefully the oil level won't be continually rising if that does happen. The main thing is be consistent with everything, every time when you do any testing.
