Bring it right back or they are going to nail you with damage from that also.

Yes, their fault; but you know its there now.

1) Is the Check engine light still on?
2) Make sure you mesure the oil always in similar conditions as before. Flat surface and the motor a little warm.

Took the key right out from under my fingers.

Make sure that your checking the oil in your garage, and not on your driveway. Your driveway has slope, therefore your oil moves to the back of the pan, giving a false reading.

that could be that the piston sealers (rings) are damaged and need replacement??

does anybody have a tech drawing of the F20C?
