Transmission fluid overfilled S500 2000

Hi Guys,

As per my previous post, I found a small patch of Tx. oil on my garage floor after the Tx oil change at the indy shop (MB specialist they said). I do not have enough time to go back to them yet to check leak. Mean time, last night I measure the oil level with the special dipstick and found it is overfilled. when the temperature is 77F (25C) in my garage the level shows 80C lower marks (engine cold). Is it tooo high? I have only driven 100 miles or so after the fluid change. Is there any possible extensive damages? what is the possible place where the excessive oil dropped out? what will be the worst scenario and what is the best approach to these idiots?
Please help me with your advice that I am planning to take day off and go to the shop tomorrow.
