oil level overfill light
I keep getting a malfunction that shows up that oil level is overfilled? I had my oil changed a few months ago and it is level? Any suggestions as this is intermittent and will go off after a bit?

There is an oil level sensor that is known to go bad. Good news...it's pretty cheap. Bad news, you have to take apart the oil pan, CLEAN it, swap out the sensor and reassemble/seal the pan (locite and all). It's a fairly easy job, just messy and tedious. Next time you need an oil change, and have 2 hrs to spare.....go for it!
