E320 CDI oil capacity?

Did anyone notice the difference in capacity between the owner's manual and WIS? Which is right?

see attached pictures.

In the 2006 owner's manual, it said 7.5L too. MB should recall the 2005 manuals!! However, it is still 0.2L more than what WIS said.

E300
The prior diesel OM606 had a capacity of 7.4 qts. If I remember, the engine in the 05-06 E320 is somewhat similar in design, the block at least. Different head, etc...
