Did my first oil and filter change @ 500 miles. I had it on the lift and let drain for over an hour. Installed new AC oil filter and filled with Mobil 1 5W-30. The owners manual says capacity is 6 quarts with oil and filter change. I filled the oil filter with oil and then added 5 quarts, started and checked for leaks. Let sit and then checked again. It only took a half quart to bring it up to full on the dipstick. Let it sit overnight to check it cold and it still shows full on the dipstick. I haven't added the remaining half quart.
When the car was delivered with 7 miles on the odometer, it showed half quart over full on the dipstick when checking it cold. I drained a half quart to bring it down to the full mark.
I just talked to another GS owner and he has experienced the same on his first oil change and also said his car was also delivered a half quart over full, but he left it alone.
Is the owners manual worng? Should I add the remaining half quart, so I have 6 quarts?
