A customer brought their car in for a brake diagnosis, and I found something disturbing during my standard check — the oil was way overfilled. This isn’t just a minor mistake… it can destroy your engine.
Overfilling oil can lead to:
Foaming and reduced lubrication
Engine overheating
Blown seals and leaks
Spark plug damage
Catalytic converter failure
This is why I never recommend using quick lube shops. Use a trusted mechanic or do it yourself right. Your engine depends on it.
