    Overfilling the oil is bad for the engine. It will cause the oil to foam and lose its lubricating ability.

    I've seen this in youtube before, where is it available and how much is it sir? (Edit, I saw it at Shopee P2,777 and Amazon * $26, need to google the size for my car).

    Is it safe? I mean, di kaya bumukas due to vibration and hindi mo ma notice since it slowly drained out of your garage.

Repeated process until O rwmived the rigjt ammount of oil. Easy, no need to crawl under your car!

    You can also quick change ATF, Power steering, and coolant this way.

    But not for brake fluid

    On some cars with spin on cartridge filter, you can unscrew the filter itself to bring an overserviced engine of oil down to recommended level

    You can, but just the fluid that's in the reservoir, not drain all the fluid in the system.

    coz the idiots at the casa always overfill. you're supposed to measure via dipstick after resting the engine for about 5mins. but no they kill the engine then measure immediately. of course it'll read low so they add more oil
    That's why when I bring my car in for an oil change, I just carry with me 3 liters. Sabi ko sa mekaniko ako na lang ang magdagdag later. Otherwise, ibubuhos yung buong 4 liters. In my experience, it takes 3 3/4 liters to fill up to the dipstick max level from fully drained.
