Just an FYI to add to the DIY knowledge.
Drained oil for over an hour, until there was only a single drip every now and then. I.e., Very thoroughly drained.
Changed oil filter.

Added exactly 9 quarts Mobil 0w40.

Ran engine for 10-20 minutes. Stopped engine. Let oil collect in oil pan for 5 minutes. Checked oil on PCM.

PCM showed oil at Max. capacity, but not over.

So, for my 2013 CS, 4.8L: 9 quarts was max. fill.

BTW, I do not mean this thread to start a discussion on how to check the oil level in a Cayenne. I just used the on board PCM.

Edit to above post:
After driving around 5-10 miles, my on-board PCM oil reading shows 1 bar below MAX.
Somewhere on the forum it says that 1 bar equals 0.26 quart.

perfect, thanks for putting this out there.

off to the garage to change my oil now.

According to the owners manual (!) 1-bar = 250cc. I've found that fairly accurate.

That is correct, as specified in the owner's manual.
