I'm confused, I've changed the oil on our P1 7 or 8 times, always put 6 quarts back in and checked it after the procedure and it's always perfect?
I understand, I'm confused too but I have read of others with the same results. And that's on this forum. I would think it would be everyone. Do you screw your dip stick in when checking?

No! 6 Quarts is perfect for the motor oil change. Sub transmission takes I believe 1.5 more?

This is what my 21 manual says:
18. Fill the crankcase with the recommended oil, approximately:
engine oil filter change: 6.08 US qt (5.75 l)
engine & DCT oil filters change: 6.1 US qt (5.8 l)

I had to quit the bourbon, makes me howl at the moon.

I've put 6.08 in during two oil changes and it just wets the stick when I warm the machine and wait 2 to 3 minutes until checking.

Ok, so if your doing what it says, then its wrong. Fill it to where its suppose to be and make a note of it. Wont be the first time and certainly wont be the last. When I changed oils on semi’s what it said and what it was was 2 different things 22-25+qts. Could be there is some manufacturing casting missin in your pan, motor or what have you. Might never know? In my 16’ I follow that link i posted, I always end up putting in a 1/2 qt more ti get it right. Just made a note of it

Manual:
21. Stop the engine and after 2 – 3 minutes, check the oil level. Make
sure the oil is between the upper and lower level marks on the
dipstick. If necessary, add more oil but do not overfill.

I guess I did it right, I added more oil and it's between the marks. Oh well. Just can't believe you have to add that much.

Guess that's what I was asking. That's about what I added, a 1/2 quart more. Sounds good.
