I thought this was downgraded to 7.5?...sorry to cloud the issue, but when I took mine to 'the MB guy down the way' for an oil change I was getting a message in my instrument cluster of 'Oil too full' or something to that effect. When I took it to the actual MB shop to get it dealt with, they said he put too much oil in and 7.5 was the right amount?...

I put 8 quarts, ran the engine for 1 minute, and checked the computer. Level was acceptable. The other .5 quart I keep in the trunk. My Chrysler-Benz drinks oil at 30,000 miles to the tune 1 quart every 1000 miles, with little or no highway driving.

I didn't know the number was reduced. Is this a directive from MB or just experience on the forum?
