You KNOW there is 6.5 qts in engine. So as long as drain plug OK and filter installed correctly, then most likely a sensor. Keep driving it-check your oil level often.

I had an oil sensor go bad. Would show low. Next time normal. Then low, etc. I had the oil changed at a shop I trust b/c it needed it & it showed low again. Changed out the sensor, no problems since.
