Thanks again to all.

Not a good sitaution to be in, but from what I ghave seen from some of your repsonses, and from doing some additional internet searches (looked on other boards and websites for the topic) overfilling by the dealership and/or shop is quite a common occurence.

Sickening, as you hope that the "professionals" would get something as basic as this right. But as I noted before, it's usually the new guy, trainee, or the vocational school interns who get assigned to "tires and oil" so The advice to check the oil after the "experts" cghange it is something I plan to do each time forward. I just hope it wasnt an expensive lesson
