Liftgate Hydraulic Pump Fluid
Greetings all.
I am the new custodian of an R63.
Trying to sort out some finicky bits on the car.
Firstly, I will be attacking the liftgate.
The hydraulic pump is bone dry.
I can't seen to find any mention on the min/max oil level when topping off.
There is a plus sign on the side of the reservoir that might indicate the fill level from horizontal and vertical positions but I don't want to guess.
Thank you in advance for any insights.
Cheers.
