Following on from my previous message: It is definitely engine oil that is
leaking, and it definitely leaks mostly when the engine is running. Could it
be because I have overfilled the oil? The oil is up to the top line of the
dipstick and possibly slightly above it, even though I carefully measured
out 2.5 liters of oil when I last changed it. Should I let some oil out?
