Max Oil Level ?

Past weekend just did first oil change. I put in about 5.5Q of oil. See attached pic, is oil at Max level or should i add more to go above the line that it current is at ? Thanks.

You know I never really pay attention to how high it actually goes.... but I did change the oil on my two cars this past weekend and mine also didn't go to the top. I wouldn't worry about it at all... in fact, if the oil level actually gets low enough to sound the alarm, it's exactly 1 qt low.. so you can just go get a bottle and add it. Otherwise it's all within acceptable range so I wouldn't do anything about it.

Your cars report the oil level? Mine just has a lame "oil level ok" display, which it only reports after 30 seconds of watching the screen, while running with the engine warm.
