Blink, in your first reply you said why to wait a few minutes? Then your last reply prior to this message says you wait for 3 minutes. I don't get you.

Yes, how do you measure if one's engine oil is overfilled? Diba when the oil exceeds the FULL mark? But question is when does that happen? Of course, when you fill up the engine knowing that when it was cold, the engine was already at FULL, and YET you still filled it up when warm. Correct?

Be it three, five, or ten minutes, the oil will still be warm. As long as it's between the full and low mark, then that's OK. But when it's cold, and it's between the full and low mark, then it's time to top it off. Correct?
