Hello All around,
I am a new member and this is my 1st post. I just aquired a well taken care of low mileage, first year (2005) C6, 6.2 liter engine. The previous owner told me he thinks he added too much oil after the last oil change but couldn't remember by how much he overfilled it. With the engine cold, the dipstick clearly shows too much. The level is about halfway between the top of the hatched mark and the twist in the stick - where the red mark is on the photo. Does anyone know by how much he overfilled it and is this a proplem for normal street operation? Can I leave it until next change or should I drain the excess?
Many thanks for the help
