hi guys,

just got my 1.5 TD back from a service. i shoulda done it myself but i have had no time.

anyway the oil has been overfilled above the 'full' marker on the dipstick.

is this ok or not?

when i changed the oil in mine a few weeks back i thought id over filled it but the oil was only on one side of the dipstick making it look like there was more in than there should be.

i not sure where the corect place to fill it to but i always fill it to in between the low and full points maybe abit closer to the low!! but if your car burns oil then i would say closer to the full. im sure you loose power if your oil is very high!!
