HR16DE engine in new Canadian 2014 Note.
Manual specs say 3.5 Liters of approved oil w/ new filter.
When completed, run, let sit for 30 minutes and rechecked, Dipstick shows considerably above maximum mark (near half liter).
Is manual or dipstick incorrect?
Local Dealer redoes oil/filter thing and comes up with same results -overfill then shrugs pointing to manual specs of Nissan.
An unofficial American site claims 3.5 QUARTS to refill w/ filter which makes for 3.3 Liters, Canadian.
I'm sure this 1.6 Nissan engine has been around for a while so would anyone know what is actually correct oil fill w/ filter 'cause my dealer just follows the manual regardless of confusing outcomes.
Tks in advance for advice,
Bill
