Engine oil warning---Help Please Urgent

Hey guys,
I just had my 2002 c32 serviced for Type A service in Edison, NJ about 2 days ago and today I got a warning saying Reduce Engine Oil level. I am driving to Canada tomorrow morning, and the dealership only opens at 9 am. My question is...can this issue be resolved easily at any auto location ?
should I not drive until this is taken care of, what can I do in terms of diy job right now ? Please HELP....
Thanks in advance
DR

Depends on how much extra oil is in the system. If it's significant (which obviously you can't tell), I can't see what you can do short of pumping some out or pulling the drain plug and letting some out.
Check your oil level again (as per the manual) on a level parking surface.

go to dyno mode and check oil level on horizontal surface. i don't think is a big deal the oil prob is just over max but the easiest way to pull some out is with a topsider.
