Would you bother to have it checked? Or just wait until the next oil change?

Thanks...


I have heard that if the level is way too high the connecting rods will "splash" the oil causing serious problems.

But I still don't think 1/8 inch over full (or a little more) would be enough to cause any effects at all.

Just my opinion.
I haven't tried it. :^)
