Well, if you know the right way, why do you type incorrectly?

After I Add 2more Quarts(total 6quarts,4 From Yesterday), On The Dipstick It Was Like Pretty Close To The Max. I Drove It To Work And Came Back, I Probably Spended 1hr On Driving Today, When I Home I Check The Dipstick It Was Like,wow!!almost 1inches Higher Then The Max, I Cool It Down For Couples Of Hrs And Checked It, It Was The Same Result, In This Case, It Was Read Unproperly?? I Mean Car Run Smooth, I Can Tell Dat!!!!

 

[numbnuts22715]

did you wipe it off and check again?

 

[MS3 GT]

yea i did it so many times!!!!!

 

[MS3 GT]

Don't go by the dipstick, if that's how you came up with 5 3/4. It reads notoriously high in this car. Just dump 6 quarts into the car if you're changing the filter and be done with it.

was he right???

OIL WILL EXPAND with heat ............so........ turn the car on for around 4 to 6 mins then let it cool so the oil will flow down to the pan then check it

 

[MS3 GT]

i had been cool it down for over 6 hrs???

 

[numbnuts22715]

i dunno what to tell you man, the ms3 is supposed to take 6 quarts. are you sure you let it drain all the way? and are you sure you kjust put in 6?

 

[xboxlivemonkey]

I just put in Castrol Syntec 5W-30 along with Lucas Oil Stabilizer and GODDAMN! Did the engine come alive! Before, it felt sluggish (I was using Royal Purple) after 4k miles and decided on the Castrol and I'm never going back to RP!

 

[Sveivo]

Yes, normally just wait a few minutes after getting the car to operating temperature to check oil. It will give you the most accurate reading.

go look in the ******* owner's manual before you start posting bulls*** and saying people are wrong.
It says 5.7 liters(6.0 quarts) if youre replacing the oil filter as well.

I don't give a flying **** if the owners manual is saying 6 quarts, I just did an oil change today and 6 quarts would have been too much, I changed the filter and drained all the oil and when it came to refill, 5 quarts and 3/4's of the remainder quart of oil was at just below max.

Asshole.
