Had local shop change oil, the oil level light reads one notch higher than full..

so all of the lights are illuminated, also when I start her up there is a white smoke cloud which does dissapte quickly, is this an issue? Do I need to drain some oil, if so from where? Or will itr burn off?

So there is a bar on top of the normal min and max scale? That would indicate an overfill?

Mine did the same thing--I just figured it'd be a little longer before I would have to add oil myself...he saved me some money
