Hi

How much oil should i put in nissan sentra 2001 1.8 engine. Also when i use the stick to check the oil level it's above Max (by this i mean above the crosshatch pattern) level by maybe 1/4". Is this a concern and should i take some oil out so it's below the max letters. Thank you for the help in advance.

Check the owners manual or ask a parts house. 1/4" over the check zone is a bit high but shouldn't cause any poroblems unless the oil start to bubble.
