That figure seems abou right. It?s actually hard to say due to the inexact measuring system. No dipstick!

What do you mean by 'no dipstick!'????

I?ll try to record some sound clips.
There is no dipstick for the oil. Only a electronic system that?s not the best one IMO. Seems a little unreliable. Rumours says that there is a new software available?
