Thanks, you scared me.

It only took a second to drive up a couple of ramps, grab a six-point socket and loosen the plug. I withdrew it by hand, and tipped-it up a bit when I came to the end of the threads. I put a little plastic container underneath with volume measurements and I let off a half quart. Now the dipstick level is perfect.

It took ten minutes including washing my hands.

With my 940 I used to put in 4 quarts and it always came up perfectly to the full line on the dipstick....
