as you guys may know, i did my first oil change myself yesterday, and i think i may have overfilled it. It isnt that much over the max notch, but anyways, just maybe some reassurance? Attached is a pic
should be less than 4 litres. If it's only slightly over filled it really shouldnt be a problem because usually the level goes down after you've run it for a few minutes, but if its still over the dot, slowly remove the drain plug a let a little into a container cuz it can cause excess splash in the valve train (if you remove too much you can just put it back in). so next time you do an oil change, add the three bottles (unless you buy the big sucker) then slowly add the 4th periodically checking the dipstick.
I've driven with it about where Melt says his is and it's been fine. It was like that for an entire oil change, in fact - so for about 3-4 months it was good. I wouldn't worry about it.
Quite a pain to jack it back up just to drain out a few ounces. What a mess that'd be. Let it be.
glad you asked that Melt, i was wondering the same thing. i ended up like that last time i changed my oil(only the 2nd time ive done it) and i wasnt sure. im glad there isnt too much harm in having a bit too much oil in there.
