Default oil overfil

Dear all,

PLEASE HEPL.

Should I drain the oil on my honda civic 1.8 as the talents at the local service overfill it for 5milimeters above the max line.

Do you know the quantity of oil that coresponds to the interval between min and max, so I can know how much is overfiled if 5mm above max line.

Thanks!!!

Bra

welcome to the forum. if 5mm is equal to .1968 in, above the max, not to worry. oil capacity for a 1.8 (civic lx) 3.7 us qt. or 3.1 imperial qt.
