High Oil Level Indicator?
I have a 2011 C300. Do they have a warning for having too much oil? The manual only shows warning light for low oil level. My car is about two months old. I never bothered checking the oil level until now, and I see that it is above the max line - covers the word MAX.

That was a fast reply. Thanks. The service advisor and a post I saw in here indicate that the same Check Engine Oil At Next Refueling will display.

Yup, keep in mind when the engine is running, the oil level will go down as it starts to pump oil through all the galleries and channels.

did you check the oil after running the engine for a few minutes? It will read high if the car has been sitting..
