Is there high oil warning on my CX5?
Had high oil (warning on the lcd) on my cx5 and cx8 both ~5000k on the clock, both bought from the same dealer. Dealer emptied and refilled oil free, on both. When it came up on my CX5 i manually checked the dipstick – it was 2-3mm above the full indicator and a few CM lower than the X on the dipstick – like no where near it.
