I am aware these are very old posts however the same issue just happened to me. Had 30k service two days ago at the dealer and today decided to check the oil only to find out that it is overfilled.

Code:
 | |
|   | <----- this is the current overfilled level
| | |
|___| ____/-- Max level
 | |
 | |
 | |
 |_| ___/-- Min level
|   | 
| | |
|___|
Now they had previously told me i had a head gasket leak, prior to service i knew i had some sort of leak just not where it may be.

Does running the engine w/ overfilled oil accentuate the existing leak?

I have spoken to the service rep and he will address this an another issue soon.
