It's been a while since I did the "drain" procedure outlined in earlier post on this thread, but I just remembered a tip for anyone using the tubing and gravity feed drain method. (remember you have to prime/suck the flow like you did when you siphoned gasoline back in the day with tubing end and the reservoir on the ground/floor level). I matched the insertion depth of the tubing to equal the MAX mark position/lenght on the dipstick, so theoretically you could leave the draining unattended into the bottle (very slow in my case), come back and it should stop draining when it reached the MAX level. Better use a big reservoir if you do that just in case it drains more than necessary and overflows a 1 QT container. This was like a 15 minute drain time in my case with the size tubing I used. Good luck. Get that extra oil outta there! Don't assume dealers do it right and check when they finish. Some obviously don't. I wonder how many are driving around with way too much oil in their cars. We probably do NOT get a warning of too much oil from the electronic sensors, do we?
