How much oil?

[martyboy]

Guys just wondering how much oil the the engine takes?
I just changed the oil and more than 5 liters came out. Just put 5 in and not sure how much it should take?

Here's a hint for everyone..."read the book"
Suprising that the pan holds 7 liter and the filter about a liter....off to super cheap for another 5 liters of magnitex.

From memory I think the Diesel totals at 9.3 litres. But about a litre stays in the oil cooler when you drain the oil. I have been putting about 8 to 8.5 litres in.

What does the V6 hold??

Yeah I finished up with putting in about 7.2 liters. I wasnt sure how i would get the oil out of the cooler so its stays there.

Do they change that when its in at the stealer for a service?
And for those of ou who change the filter the correct one to get is the V055 (Valvoline) from Super Cheap. Its the most expensive filter there is $32.00.
So the change cost me $100.00 and I have 3 liters left over.
