Hi guys, changed the oil on my 2012 skyactiv for the first time since buying it in June. Just a quick question regarding the oil capacity. I bought a jug of Mobil 1 0w-20 with 4.4L in it and used it all because I didn't want an extra 200ml of oil lying around, even though the manual says to use 4.2L. Will the extra 200ml do anything harmful? I've added a little more than what's recommended in the past and never had an issue but I would like to know since this is an engine I'm unfamiliar with. I don't think it's a big deal but I wanted other opinions. Thanks

200ml extra wont make a difference. If u over filled by half a liter or more then thats an issue. I wouldnt worry.
