Russ, Okay! Thanks, I got the oil down to the right level today (same
wrench - he didn't think I was being too picky) - put the Summer tires on.

Befiore that, my buddy and I tooled around Princeton and the Highways the
other day. Some pretty heavy-footed stuff (I'd blame the race gas) How would
I know if I've fouled up the Cats? or anything else.

Doug,

Oil capacity on an UrS4/S6 is 4.5 liters or about four and three quarters
quarts -- 5 quarts is definitely overfull (and you will spill oil into the
catalytic converters if you punch it in that condition, good friend of mine
has btdt).  No opinion whether this would affect operating oil pressures -
