If its giving you too much oil warning do not drive the car. Its not uncommon for the turbo to blow it seals if there is too much oil in the sump, it over pressurises the oil system and the turbo seals are one of the weakest points. The dealer should come and sort the car out afterall its their problem. If the turbo does blow its seals its really expensive as it will ruin the turbo and the dpf on the car and has the potential for the car to run on (using the oil as fuel) even with the ignition off.
