Default Tranny fluid for C2 - 4.0 qts or 3.8 qts?

Changing the transmission fluid for my 993 C2 the first time today.
I note that the p-car DIY calls for 4.0 US qts of fluid but Streather call for 3.8 qts. What is your experience? Thank you.

Fill it until it pours out the fill hole. IIRC you won't get 4 litres in.

Exactly. I fill until it runs out, close it up, work on other stuff, and double check in a few minutes. If its still leaking out, I close it up and its done.

I think its closer to 3.8 since I usually have a bit left in the can when filling. I use a pump, and some of the oil remains in the lines.

Cheers,

Mike
