Oil Change

[Caveman]

According to the DIY link previously posted ... 4.5 litres.

Yes....the 4 litre can of Castrol Edge is not quite enough for an oil change, so you either buy 2x4L with plenty left for top ups or just an extra 1L bottle which is very expensive for such a small quantity!

Thanks for your help. I will take it to the dealership to get the oil change done. That way I know its done right.

I really hate taking my cars to dealerships.
For the opposite reason.
