Cannot argue there, for I have no personnal experience with it and I usually base my opinions on them, but I have learned at a fairly young age that ' better safe than sorry' was not just a saying used by a lecturing mom. But hey, some like gambling and some don't. I guess I'm on the second boring crowd but you"llnever see me with my head in my hands wondering why the #$%? didn't I do the logic thing to do!!!

Don't get me wrong....I do take my chances from time to timebut never when the outcome can be that expensive.

 

I go back before unleaded gas,, O2 sensors,,
and VW's were still air cooled DAM I feel old.

If you over fill it by more than a QT I would drain the extra out.
More than 2 qts will start getting in the intake from the PCV system
and smoke and then spark plugs fail this is as far as it goes.

Then a big mess to clean the intake and the rest.

 

I put a 5qt container and about 2 lines of the second one. i think thats about 7-7 1/2qts

 

You hold 7 quarts. You are fine.
In the future you might want to buy thejug and then two seperate quarts so that way you know for a fact and are not guessing how much you put in.
Otherwise just buy one one quart bottle and then fill that one quart from the big jug.
According to the RAVE CD the engine sump (oil pan) holds 6.3 quarts and the oil filter holds .65 quarts. So you are only over by half a quart.
Dont worry about it, drive it, dont lose sleep over it.
