ENGINE OIL OVERFILLING DANGEROUS???

[afrasay]

OVERFILLING OIL IS A MAJOR NO NO!!!!!!!

Its better to have a little oil (Min level) than overfilling. As we know, oil pressure builds up as we increase revs. If you have to much oil, the pressure will build up excessively, thereby posing a serious threat to your oil seals!!! Although mura lang ang oil seals, ang hirap sobra palitan nyan!

You drain the excess oil through the same drain plug underneath. Be ready for some serious splashing! :D

In my diesel ride, i only put about 3/4 full (based on the dipstick).

korek ka dyan.

Kailangan ba na start mo muna yung engine and after that shut off the engine before checking the oil dipstick? I was informed by Isuzu Manila to do that when checking the oil dipstick. Kasi pag hindi pa na start yung dipstick ay over sa maximum limit, but after na ma start at icheck yung oil level ay within the level requirement.

reviving this thread.. i was about to ask the same question.. heck as a 1st time car owner, i thought it was only a mere observation when last year i had to drain the excess oil from my CRV due to a great loss of torque..
2 weeks back, had a quick oil-change at a Shell station,, and the mechanic just overfilled my crank case,, nalingat lang ako sandali.. nung nagreklamo ako,, he told me "ala naman issue yan",, (he looks quite senior) , so di na ako nagreklamo.. now, here comes the issue again,, im loosing power na naman specially at low gear & during quick launches at traffic lights..

now confirming from this thread that excess oil is a NO NO,, kailan kaya matututo ang mga gasoline station guys na huwag mag-overfill ng oil, without explicitly reminding them? kakainis kasi,, DIY drain excess oil na naman ako..

overfilling the crankcase results in the engine oil being whipped by the connecting rods and the crankshaft creating foam of the engine oil. foam oil does not lubricate moving parts as well as liquid engine oil. the foam oil gets carried into the intake through the pcv valve and it serves as fuel inside the combustion chambers as mentioned by ibaloi. this unintentional temporary fuel supply can not be controlled and the runaway engine has a potential to self destruct because of uncontrolled engine speed. similar to claims about engines running wild, a novice driver panics and causes an accident causing harm to himself and/or other motorists.

I dont fill my crankcase up to the "F" level of my dipstick. I only fill it up to 3/4. Kapag overfill, sisirain nya ang mga engine gaskets which results to leaks. Also, kapag overfill, pahihirapan mo yung makina na mag-circulate ng oil sa buong makina, which will loose konting power (instead na ginagamit mo na - pag takbo ng sasakyan)..
Para din sa tao kapag high blood pressure, maaring ma-damage mga ugat-ugat natin, di ba?

Hyundai casa sir. Twice na nangyari sakin yan, different branches, so ako nalang nagbabawas. Under warranty pa so medyo tinatyaga ko muna sila. Wala din kasi akong pangtanggal ng drain plug sa ilalim so ganito nalang ginagawa ko.

Haha oo nga. Sinasabi ko sa kanila na masama yung sobra, pero pinagpipilitan pa din nila na yun daw ang policy nila, sobrahan.
Kesa makipagtalo pa, ako nalang nagtatanggal.

Policy nila, pero kotse mo iyon. Dapat ikaw masusunod.

Pag di mo sinunod at nasira makina mo, ikaw sisisihin kasi di ka sumunod. Hay, casa.

THe hassle you have to go thru for availing casa service. Tama si falken, binili mo yam, do what you think is right.
