I have a lift in my garage and let the oil drain for about 3-4 hours for every oil change I do and I can tell you that if you are putting any more than 3.5 qts of oil with a filter change....you are putting in too much oil.

Yeah ive noticed that too. Once i add 3.5 quarts and check it. It shows up full. I just save the half quart for the next oil change.
