How to Check for Engine Oil Overfill?
1 Answers
Methods for checking engine oil overfill: 1. Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface to improve the accuracy of oil level measurement. If parked on an uneven surface or slope, move the vehicle to a level ground; 2. Turn off the engine and wait for about 5 to 10 minutes to allow oil that has accumulated in the upper part of the engine to fully drain back into the oil pan; 3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean with a lint-free cloth, then reinsert the dipstick into the engine's dipstick tube. Wait a few seconds to allow the oil to fully adhere to the dipstick; 4. Remove the dipstick again and observe whether the highest oil mark on the dipstick is within the specified range.
