So if you work on other people’s cars, you couldn’t give two sh*ts whether you thoroughly perform the job or not and accurately?

Of course when techs work on customer cars they're like "oh its not my car" mentality which I despise. I'' throw in 5 tonight and let the car run for a little and I'll check where the level is
The oil capacity in the manual and your chart is based on an empty engine. When you drain the oil of your engine, you will not get 100% all of it out.

What? So then if you knew how to work on your own, you’d bring it to the dealer?
