I'm not sure what that means. I've asked a Subaru garage here in Spain but they don't seem to know.

Extract from handbook......For diesel engine models make sure to check engine oil level 5 mins after engine stops . Waiting any longer will prevent accurate oil measurement....page 11.20...When I check in accordance with book its ok if I wait say 10 mins the level rises. There must be a reason but I don't know what it is.

Yes I realize that but it says not to wait any longer than five minutes because you will get a false readin

Can anyone explain why the oil level on my Outback has to be checked exactly after five minutes after switching off. I do this every time without really knowing the reason apart from it says so in the handbook!
