To the TOP mark of the special dipstick used for 722.6s

This special measurement device have, as with any oil dipstick, a LOW and FULL level mark. In most cases it is recommend to fill the oil to the point BETWEEN the low and full markings. Many techs advise that filling oil to the top would create oil leaks through overflow valves or gaskets.

What I am talking about on my previous post is that M.B. had found out that the oil level on the 722.6 transmission has to be always at the TOP mark, not on the middle, for the transmission to operate properly.

Be advised that the lecture of the oil on the 722.6 has to be taken at a precise oil temperature! (or it will provide erroneous readings).
