Please make sure that you are not adding oil until it hits the H then come post here how you've burned oil. Per than manual, the H line (hole) is the never to exceed line. This isn't your FULL line. DO NOT FILL TO THE H.

5 1/8ths quarts of oil will get you right to the center of the 2 holes as per my oil change. So if you are going above that....your car never had that much oil in it to begin with. Wouldn't be surprised if a ton of people are running out over filling their cars. They now have 7 quarts of oil in it and claim they burned 2

So the real question is...how much oil have you burned from where u are at now to the center of the 2 holes?

Make sure you follow this....

I'm sure most of you know this already but I thought I would post it because you NEVER KNOW...on this board

Good post! On the drive home I was thinking about posting up a note about not over filling! That will do as much if not more damage as running it a little low.
