Oddly enough, I have had the exact same experience with my Lexus dealer. Every time I have taken it there, and I always bring my own Mobil One oil, they say they need 7.5 quarts. The owners manual says it takes 6.5 quarts for full. I check the dipstick the next moring and it's always right at full.

When I have taken it to my local oil change place with my own Mobil one, they use 6.5 quarts, and again, my dipstick reads full. I have no idea whats going on unless my lexus dealer is stealing that extra quart. That is rediculous though.
