[QUOTE="John A, post: 802280, member: 58406"] Alright, so the leak is back very slowly this time... 1 drop per 2 days... As I was reorganinzing my shelf in my garage placing some jugs of 4.4 litres of Synthetic oil to my stock (picked them up at a great price), I noticed that my previous oil jugs were 5.0 litres and usually what I'd do for a oil change is add the 4.4 litre jug and a litre jug and completely oblvious to the 5 Litre jug as I never looked at it before until I placed the 4.4 litre jug beside it and noticed there were different sizes...:wacko: So my question here, adding 6 litres of oil cause oil to spurt out due to excessive amount of oil especially from the PCV Valve? My initial ts'ing showed the PCV Valve caused the leak, I haven't checked it since but this may explain my leak if oil level is too high and seaping out... Anyone else make the same mistake and noticed a leak? [/QUOTE]
