I've slightly overfilled the oil level...

Imagine this is the 2 marks: Min |..........| Max.......<---- Mines here

Is that a major problem? Drainings kinda hassle but i'll do it if i need to.

Cheers

Yeah, too much oil will give too much oil pressure and could damage something.

I'd drain some out, just undo the sump plug until it starts dribbling out, dont take it all the way out as its quite difficult getting it back in when oil is flying out, speaking from experience,Lol.
