I think there is nothing abnormal with that!

If your level was truly at the lower acceptable limit and you added 2 quarts, I'm almost positive you overfilled. By lower acceptable limit, do you mean the bottom of the dipstick?That would make more sense. Otherwise you likely overfilled. Check it again and report your level. You shouldn't drive your car with 1 quart overfilled.

- Make sure you are on level ground.
- When checking the level, wipe off the excess from the first one or two pulls.

If the level is fine and you really burned off 2 quarts, like others have said, there is a big problem and you should take it to the dealer.

Also, I just noticed you said 2 liters not 2 quarts, if its 2 liters, you actually put in about 2.1 quarts.
