just did oil change - question...
Ok, I just hit 9000 miles on Friday morning. So today, I did an oil change. I do the 3000 miles thing. Well, as usual after 3000 miles the oil was pure black. But anyway, my question is... my manual says my engine holds 2.9 US qt's. I don't have an oil container, so I just put the used oil back in the qt bottles after I've used them, and after putting the old oil in, it came about to about 2.1 qt's. Is it normal for my car to be using oil like that after 3000 miles? Almost a qt.
