Default Too much oil>>>>>>>>>>>>

Pulled dipstick and found too much oil, like 1 -1 1/2 inch above safe on 2007 6.7 cummins. If it is cracked injector body how much am i looking at spending to fix this at dealer any real new too this engine guys. Bought the truck used had it six months and it is my second veh. Has 49,000 miles on it. It is still in engine warranty would this be covered by chance.

No mods at all. Been thinking about some but like i said real new to this engine. But I am really wondering about this oil thing. Also forgot to mention overhead says oil change due contact dealer. No codea or other warnings as far as i know.

Probably just from cylinder wash due to the active regen cycles. Pretty common on a 6.7 with emission equipment intact.

Do the deletes if you can, your engine will thank you.
