I had a shop do it and I watched and they drained the oil and got a nissan filter and put it on, they put the cover and bolt on also...then they poured 5 quarts of 5w 30 mobile 1 synthetic oil, then poured a little bit after that and what was left in the 6th quart bottle was right in the middle of the 600 mark and 800 mark (readings on the side of the oil bottle) is this too much oil? Did they overflow my engine with oil? I know its supposed to be 5 and 1/8...
