Hi guys,

What is the correct amount of oil needed in order to reach the Maximum fill level? I put in 7 quarts and the dashboard readout is still below Max. I've read some posts where people have experienced varying fill levels. However, 7 quarts is supposed to be the maximum. I've checked the drain nut and around the oil filter and havn't found any leaks.

Any insights?
