I did a search and found 1 thread that is 2 years old about the engine dipstick, so I want to see if anyone else has the same issue.
I brought my car to Firestone to get an oil change, took it home and checked the dipstick, it was way over the F. So I checked the invoice and it says 5 qt. I almost had an heart attack. I took the car back, and after much agrument with 2 mechanics and the store owner, they did another oil change. Their explanation for the 5 qt shown on the invoice was that the system out 5 qt on every invoice.
Anyway, I stood there to see that the tech put 3.5 qt in, and he did, and brought the empty bottles out. I checked the dipstick again 2 hours after I got home, and it is still above the F. I am starting to wonder if the OEM dipstick is accurate or not.
