I did an oil change at 1,000 miles. I used a funnel to fill the oil, not a drop spilled.

My Supra now has about 3,500 miles. Under the hood, the rim of the engine oil filler cap was wet with oil. The foam of the engine cover was soaked. And there was engine oil all over the top of the engine.

At the oil change, I filled it to the specified amount, and verified the oil was at the "max" line. Today it was half way between the max and min. I put 300ml of oil, the measure line returned to max. I cleaned the engine bay and wiped everything down, but it was leaking oil again after a short period.

The oil seems to emanating from the engine oil cap, or the vents under it.

Looks like you overfilled the thing.
