2004 E320 Dipstick

I just received the crankcase dipstick that I ordered for my E320. Because it is calibrated in mm what is the proper reading for full (8.5qt) or 1 qt low? Please provide me with your expertise opinion/knowledge regarding this question. Thanks.....

Full capacity should be between 170-172mm. If you're at approx 158mm, then you're down 1 qt (approx 0.95L).

Sent you a PM.
