-Have you driven the car since the oil change, not just idling? Yes 400 miles
When you removed the oil filter, that should have drained about a quart, and one bar on the digital gauge is roughly one cup (8 oz). Driving the car after an oil change will also affect the oil level as the oil circulates through the engine. A white puff of smoke will indicate if an overfill is actually affecting the AOS.

See answers above ��
I let it sit until it was not too hot, probably 5 hours. Pulled canister, started it just to fill canister. Checked the dash level it was perfect. Sat overnight all bars lit.
