I have a 99 SVT and have been around here for years.

Typically I used to keep the oil level at the full mark.

Over the past year, I've been heeding the suggestions of some people here that overfilling the engine slightly may help prevent some of the catastrophic engine failures people have seen.

However, every time I bring the oil slightly passed the maximum, the car seems to burn the "excess" off.

Now I did change oils around the time I started overfilling so unfortunately I can't say for sure which change has caused the consumption.

But I've read other posts and it seems like I'm not the only one who has seen oil consumption increase with a higher fill level.

Are most of you overfillers seeing this??
