You need to give these guys a little more info. Most of my problems in putting 60,000 miles on in the last three years and doing stuff myself have been solved by going back to whatever I last did and doing it right. Did it 'mist or steam oil' before that last oil change? Is the oil level at the top of the dipstick? How about the gauge? Is it showing full cold and hot? Maybe you've overfilled the oil? Or is the sump plate on backwards interfering with the oil pickup? If a shop did the last change go ask them. Me? I just finished rebuilding my pedal cluster with only three washers left over. Pretty good eh? Though that lock washer is a little bothersome. Ah, I bet it'll come to me. NeneneneNaah.
