Message	Nissan's Service Manual warns against overfilling the oil, which you've done if you've used 4+ quarts. The warning tells you that the oil will froth and lose its flow characteristics, and also cause the engine to lose power. Not to mention it is more likely to reverse flow in the PCV valves and into the intake tract.
