[C320-list] KM2P SAE 30 OIL level

[Doug Treff]

Jeff, 

The stated capacity of the transmission is for when it's level. Because it is on a slant, the amount is less. Somewhere I have it written down. I'll look around for the correct amount.

As others have stated, it's read when the dipstick is set in but not threaded down.
