Engine oil dilution. There is an issue with the l15 engines and gas flowing down past the pistons into the crankcase. These engines have been recalled in china and only "affected" states in the us and canada. I do not live in one of these "affected" states but my engine oil level is above the maximum level and smells heavily of gas.

I have a 2017 honda civic with the 1.5 liter turbo. I started seeing lots of information on the civic forum about oil dilution so i decided to have my engine oil analyzed. The report came back saying that the amount of fuel in my oil was greater than 5% which was deemed critical . This condition will cause engine failure and possible unsafe conditions.
