I have a question for the car people

[entice59]

im very cartarded so i dont know a lot
i drive a 1990 integra GS 2 door automatic.
i recently got an oil change from a gas station and after the car was cooled about 3 hrs i checked my oil and it was above the 2 dots on the dipstick, its above the second dot(full) by a cm if not less, would you say that would be okay or should i go back and tell them they added too much and ask for another
its says honda on the engine and on the reciet it says added 4 quarts of oil, i dont have the manuel

How did you read the dip stick? You have to take it out, clean it off, then dip it back in all the way, then take it out again and then read the stick.

I'm sure your oil level is fine, just do like Beth says and wipe the dipstick off and redip it to get the correct reading.
Your engine says Honda because Honda is the manufacturer of Acuras.

yeah i cleaned the dipstick and put it back in all hte way

[tony detroit]

Did you check it with the engine running or the engine off?

 

[entice59]

well they could have tried to save money and not replaced the oil filter and just dumped in 4 quarts that is why it is a little high. make sure it is one level ground and cooled off and try again and if it still like that go back to the place and have them explain to you why the oil level is the way it is
