Engine Oil Can indicator light comes on
Engine Oil Can indicator light comes on
Hi,
Can someone give me a little advise? I am a Proud owner of a 2004 w/68,500 miles runs great however in March I received an oil change (Mobile 1) and just yesterday I am getting the oil can light in the odometer display on and saying (Hi). Read the owners manual and it's stating that there is to much oil, checked the level and all is fine. Any ideas what could be causing the indicator to go off?

The book calls for 8 1/2 quarts - but if you putin 8 1/2, you get the hi oil alarm a lot.
My last car, I drove for 73,000 miles on 8 quarts - never saw the alarm.
If the dipstick shows that it is essentially OK, I'd not worry about it, but at the next change make it clear that they are to use only 8 quarts.
