Are you looking at the dipstick after the oil’s been filled, but before the engine has been run? Some of that oil will go to fill up the oil filter and cooler/cooler lines (if there is one) once the engine is operated. Almost every vehicle I’ve changed oil on reads somewhat high if I haven’t run the engine yet, but it settles down to full afterwards.
