Mine isn't very accurate. Shows low even when the level is right between the add and full marks. Marshall says that sometimes Mobil 1 will bring a flaky sender back around after a while. I replaced the one in the 300E to get it back into proper order. Probably do the same with the 300TD sooner or later.

Herr Doktor,

You will recall the BCM is checking Mobil 1 oil level
after the car has sat for at least 8 hours (cooled
down)...was that advice JUST for the OM617 or does it
also apply to the OM603?

How reliable, in general, is the oil level indicator
in the 87 300TD?

Thanks!

Chris
