[C320-list] KM2P SAE 30 OIL level

[jackbrennan]

Hi Jeff:
The manual says just to the line with the dipstick set in, not screwed in. 30 weight engine oil. I usually need to lay the dipstick on a paper towel to detect oil because it's not very visible.

Just setting the dipstick in, and a little higher when screwed in.  So I drained the transmission oil and put 300ml (0.3L) back in as the manual says for this km2p unit.  The oil level is now 1/2" higher than the old oil level.Is the line on the dipstick just the bare min oil level?    There is no upper oil level line...  I seem to have to ask this every time.  I have CRS apparently.Am I good here?Jeff Hare
