'03 c230k oil level in dyno mode - what reading do you get?
Since we don't have dipsticks, I thought this might be a useful thread - especially for people doing an oil change. Just curious what everybody is seeing when they check their oil in dyno mode?
When I put my car into dyno mode, then cycle to the screen with oil level, then turn the key to the on position (not starting car, of course) - level ground and car hasn't been run for at least 1/2 hour - I get 4.9 qts. If I'm not in dyno mode and do an oil check the normal way it say the oil level is OK.
Can we get some more posts to find out what a 'normal' full level would be? Someone posting this check right after an oil change from a dealer would be ideal. Thanks!!!

My 02 is a quart off, as in 1 quart low.
I know this, because after putting 7 quarts in it says I only have 6!
So be careful. Don't overfilll!!!!!!!
