    Overfilled engine oil. How much is to much?

    When I had my 16 f150 with the 5.0 it called for something like 7.7 quarts of oil. I always just put 8 in and it was never about the the full line. Speaking of bad dealership oil changes, I had a VW Passat for a few years. The first two oil changes were on VW. The factory fill was so clear I...

    how much oil does your disposal place allow at one time?

    Autozone is the closest place from me that recycles. I just walk to the back on my own and dump it in their drum. Nothing to sign, they don’t bat an eye.

    VOLKSWAGEN 502 00 / 504 00 / 508 00 / 511 00 APPROVAL LISTS

    Thanks. I was going off a list on another thread that has all the brands that make a 508/509 spec oil. Mobile, pennzoil, Valvoline, Castrol all make one but you can’t find any of them on a store shelf. Can’t even find them on their websites except for mobile.

    VOLKSWAGEN 502 00 / 504 00 / 508 00 / 511 00 APPROVAL LISTS

    Where do I find the engine code? There’s a sticker under the hood that says to use VW 508/509 spec oil. It’s a 2020 Passat.

    VOLKSWAGEN 502 00 / 504 00 / 508 00 / 511 00 APPROVAL LISTS

    Yes. 2020 Passat. I was going off a spreadsheet someone posted elsewhere showing all the brands that offer vw508 spec oil. I only mentioned Castrol since it’s recommended under the hood which should mean Castrol oil with that spec should be easy to find but it’s not the case. I was hoping by now...

    VOLKSWAGEN 502 00 / 504 00 / 508 00 / 511 00 APPROVAL LISTS

    I’ve looked on the websites of Pennzoil, Valvoline. They all say they don’t have an oil for a 2020 VW Passat. Makes no sense. Under the hood of my VW Castrol is recommended but their website also says they don’t have an oil for my car. 🤷‍♂️

    Who had great success reaching high mileages with recommended (extended) service intervals?

    Check this thread out in an F150 forum. 400,000+ miles on a 2.7 EB engine. Almost all highway. And he doesn’t change the oil until the dash tells him to which is close to 10,000 miles. https://www.f150forum.com/f118/100-000-mile-2-7-a-389552/index35/

    Which 5w-20?
