Engine oil overfilled..aduh...

[bryan90s]

y/day sent my kenari to a P2 service centre in SS13 for normal lub service. When i got back my car, as usual, i will check on the left-over oil. i found the bottle is lighter than it used to be. Shit....

got back home and let the car cool down abit, pop the bonnet and check the dip stick. MAKAI the level is over inch from the FULL mark.

what can i do now? drain the oil ? from the drain nut? scare later cant control the flow. any place/solution whereby i can remove some of the extra oil?

BEWARE. those going to Perodua service centre at SS13. my first and last visit there for sure.

service once my car at there, the foreman is kindda of tak cukup tidur... or main main when they service the car.. but perhaps u can go back n make a claim frm them ...

You have to drain it out abit. If not the overfilled oil will go to your combustion chamber(if the piston rings are lose) and create white smokes. This is the worst case. But till now still nothing happen right? So no need to worry too much, just go back there and ask them drain it out abit. From the way you say on this shop, I can feel that those fellowsare not experience enough to do the job.

If engine oil overfilled also will cause your car to consume more petrol than usual.. so it's better to drain out the excessive oil.. bring it back to P2 service centre that you sent.. they shouldn't charge any extra money..

send back to work shop to siphon out the excess lub oil.....alternatively, u can use a drinking straw to sedut the oil out. j/kidding on the second part

i think if u know how to change engine oil urself... u can go underneath ur car and release some urself... but dont use straw la... later ur straw masuk inside then damn susah already... keke

the drain plug underneath the engine is not design to drain lub oil in controlled manner......I don't wan our fren turn into "indian" when the lub oil accidently spill over the face. Siphon the excess lub oil is the best way. the workshop should have the hose.......if wanna try DIY, use the cheap "pump" sold in kedai runcit previously used to pump kerosene from tank.....but I think susah jugak.....

 

[juniorkirk]

so go back to the mechanic shop is the best choice...

[gohkokeng]

[ken yeang]

[Fluffy]

see.this is the prob with workshops lately.

btw,plz drain it abit..very harmful..

Firstly,

1. Take a picture of the dipstick with the excess oil as a prove.
2. Drive slowly back to the workshop and ask them to drain the excess oil.

If anything wrong, can make a claim with prove that pic and bill. If they don't do anything go to the press and make a big hoo har. Sure kau tim wan.
