Audi A6 2.0 TDI - Oil level - HELP!

[Ray Singh]

Driving the wifes car home yesterday and the low oil warning light came on.
Normally when this comes on, I add a litre of oil into the engine.

I did this, this morning and checked the level using the dip stick.

It now looks over filled.

Here is an image of the dip stick.



The level is up near the top ball of the stick. Is this overful? If so, how hard is it to empty some out? Can this be done via the dip stick?

Thanks.

Just drain a bit out using the sump plug something like below.
