Hey Guys,
I just did an Oil change on my GTR and I have a q. If I put in about 300mls more than I took out, will that cause a problem? Heres the scenario:
Car was only warm when I drained it, I had idled it for a while. I have a remote oil filter + oil cooler on the car so I take a little more oil than standard. I drained it as much as I could and then plugged it back up and filled her up. Then idled again and got just under normal operating temp (maybe 2/3rds up the standard temp guage - my water temp guage had not lifted off 50 degree's) and oil pres. seemed normal. I didn't realise but the bucket thing that I used to drain into had a level on it to show how much oil was taked out and it was on 4L and I put in about 4.3L. Once warm the dipstick reported right on the H level.
Should it be ok? If not, how do I drain only 300mls? (By getting my hands dirty i bet )
Any info is muchly appreciated Thanks!
