The manual calls for 5 quarts of oil, but after I have fully drained all my oil and added 5 quarts back, the oil line is always about .5cm to.8cm over the full line on my dipstick. Is this normal? Should I be worried at all about overfill?

Fill it till its full my manual says 5 as well sometimes people on here go up to 6 it depends what your dipstick reads go by that.

My manual calls for 6.0 quarts with a filter change. The 3.8L calls for 5 with a filter change...

4.6L = 6 qt.'s , or so the manual say's . I buy 6 qt's and use 1/2 qt to flush out alittle more dirty oil , then add the rest & it's about 1/2 way between min/max line's .

Do 04's have bigger pans? My manual says 5 quarts. But I still am wondering if I am hurting anything by having it like this. When I first bought the car, the oil was at the full line and I only drained 4 quarts out. Idk what the deal is.

I think some ppl spend more time on their sig pic than their car sometimes. Just a random thought.
