I was playing around with Xentry on the W210 this afternoon. It brings up HHT. I found the place where it measures ATF level. It gave the temp which, in and of itself, is a great benefit...no more guesswork!

But for the level, it says it has to be 80C. As mine only read 67C, there was no level reading. Does it actually have to reach 80C and not a degree less to give a level reading? The temp starts to drop quickly, so I of course wonder if I could get everything hooked up in time after a drive to get an 80C reading.

That being said it may be simplest just to interpolate the correct level based on whatever temp reading I get.

I'm having to keep an eye on things because of a slow leak.

Thanks.
