Not when i change mine it isn't. 4.5 quarts reads dead center on the dip stick, and yes, I let it drain for about 2 beers so I am sure it is all out.

Really? I have an oil dispenser in my car that's feeding off the oil line. It is for certain occasions with the lucky chick that sits in the passenger side.

Some of the members here change it right after 1,200 miles break-in period.

Nobody on this board is going to know which synth oil is truly best, it's all based on hype and commercialism. Oh yeah, Mobil 1 is better than Quaker State and Pennzoil - why? Because a lot of gorilla marketers said so and they sponsor cool import cars and have more ads in the import mags... Ssss... Just try and stick to the same brand whatever you choose and your engine will do just as fine whatever you pick.
