Went and picked up some oil and gave the car 1 brief blast on the way home, barely touched 5k and the smoke started out the back.

So checked the oil levels before starting the change, the level was right at top of dipstick level indicator.

So I've drained the Mobil 1, which runs like water , without changing the filter and replaced it with Castrol 10W-60.

I managed to drain out 7.5L and I've put back in 7L to get the dipstick level just to the minimum indicator. Does this sound right?

Lets see what happens tomorrow when I take it out.
