Yeah, that's what happened to me, I got a bad reading. It was all warmed up but still showing only halfway between full and low on the dipstick with 6.5 quarts in there. I put the other half in and didn't drive it till the next morning. After only a couple miles the CE light came on and hasn't gone off for over 100 miles now. And dipstick reads way over full, take the oil cap off and there is fresh oil splash still right under the cap. I say it is probably a little more than 7 quarts because I didn't have the car perfectly flat when I drained it.
Seemed to drive fine all day, guess my main concern is whether the CE light is just because of the oil, or there is another serious problem lurking.
