So usually when i do an oil change i put in 4.4L or (4.6qts), but this time i bought the 5L can (5.3qts) and i put the whole thing i was in a hurry and didn't check the dip stick and i don't have the car rite now so is the extra 600ml really going to damage the engine? plus i changed the filter also.

 

You should be okay with that much over. most mechanics just pour it in without caring it is always over the limit line and I didn't see it was a problem. Repeatedly doing so could be a problem.

 

I will go with 5 QTS being ok, as the TL does use a slight amount of oil in the 7500 miles

5 LITERS- 5.3 qts- NO
open the drain plug and let some back out
A few MM over the full line is ok but not that much over
The problem is fluid gets frothed by crankshaft when its too high- kills oil

 

really every 7500 miles u suppose to change oil? i usually do it every 3100 miles, so do i still have to drain it?

 

i also heard some where in an other tread that the tl uses windage oil tray? so up to an extra quart will be ok is that true?

 

i think i poured too much too. when you pull out the dipstick where is the oil supposed to sit at? first hole or second hole? also, what is the reconmended amount to be used? 4.6qts?

 

2nd hole (top one)

 

the lower hole on the oil dipstick is the lowest is should ever be allowed to get down to
Normal fill is 4.6-4.7 qts with a filter
that will put it right at the upper- FULL dot
the .3 QT extra is not a problem as I said-
but you are talking about .6 qt over so yes, drain a bit out- wont take but a minute to do

I am not aware of the TL having a seperation plate for the crankshaft to oil,
just the oil pickup in the pan like a normal car is in there

DONT way overfill it!!

7500 miles is what acura has the maitenance required light programmed for on usa cars- If you reset at oil change it will remind you starting at about 6000 miles, until 7500 it comes on steady and you change oil- reset light/reminder
If you live in `extreme conditions` you may need to change sooner, or certain oils allow you to go longer intervals too
Consult your owner book to know for sure

 

lol i got the car back actually measured how much above the oil was on the dip stick and found out its 2mm above the top hole.(car rested for about 3 hours before checking)

 

should be ok bro

 

For some a easier way might be to pull the oil filter off and drain it then replace it start the car shut it off and recheck it. Trying to let just a little out of the drain plug could get really really messy.
