Back from a journmey of 400 miles yesterday and decided to check oil level on E320 Cdi as I have not put a drop in since new. Waited a couple of hours and sure enough "add 1 litre." Did that three times. Same result.
But mindful of tales of woe on this forum, waited until this morning and sure enough, "oil level ok". Did that a number of times and the same result.
So strikes me the oil level sensor set for add 1 litre or nothing and I may be needing, say, 0.75 of a litre! Bring back the dipstick!
Anyway, moral is wait overnight I think.
