HOW MUCH OIL DO I NEED!!!!!

Re: HOW MUCH OIL DO I NEED!!!!!
It seems that our engines secretly burn some oil. I've never been able to drain anything more than 4 quarts. I change religiously at the proper intervals. So, I always put in 4.5 quarts. I give it a quick run and leave it. Wait five hours to let all the oil drain out of the dip stick chamber so you can actually read it. Then determine how much of the remaining .5 quarts you should put in.

Yes it is! It ends up building too much pressure and can cause a leak. If you can, I would try to drain some of that out. You may be okay b/c the seals are new n fresh, but if you did it on a car with higher miles, it could be trouble.

I wasn't trying to be a Richard......I was kidding...
But for the rest of you.......I don't think I have ever seen an Owners Manual that did not give you capacities for fluids like oil!!!!
Check out page 10-2 : "Capacities & Recommended Fuel/Lubricants/Fluids"

Re: HOW MUCH OIL DO I NEED!!!!!
I probably did a few times, but I think our heated seats are pretty much usless! Even on the hot setting it takes about 20 minutes to get warm, but you can still barely feel it. I have been in other cars where the heat comes up within the first minute and is extremely hot on high. They kinda make ya feel like you lost all control after a night of heavy drinking and about 10 white castles! SWAMP ****!!! I wish our heated seats at least worked!
