I had the oil change in our 2015 Passat TDI recently. They used Liqui Moly 507 00 5W30 . All seem fine until about halfway home, 35 miles or so, the yellow "oil can" symbol started flashing occasionally. I pulled over and checked and the oil wasn't low. When I got home and let it set for about an hr and then checked it I discovered it was at least 1/2" above the top of the full hash-mark on the dipstick. I used my oil extractor and got it down to the correct level. In fact it was over filled by about a quart. It still has the occasional flashing yellow "oil can" indication on the screen and now it also says "service oil soon" upon starting. It's running fine and no check engine lights. Any suggestions, thanks?
