News Bulletin,
You may have over filled the oil. Even though the manual says you hold 11 quarts that's total including the front cooler and oil lines. If you have a front mounted oil cooler you should never put in more than 9 quarts of oil when you make a change. Then run the car until it get's hot enough to open the thermostat, then check the oil level on the dipstick and add if needed. I may be wrong here but the front cooler and oil lines may not drain when you open the tank plug. If so you'll have about 2.5 quarts too much oil in the car and may suck it into the engine. I'm sure others will chime in and correct me if I'm wrong.
