rinseep82 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) If you changed the bearings ied fill it to the top of the dipstick prime the engine and then check again and top up if needed start it leave it running for a while turn off let it stand for 5-10 min then check again Edited August 7, 2014 by rinseep82 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DevonGT Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Im worried about why mine took so much as i started with 5 litres and only have 1.5 litres left and its just under the top fill mark =/ That's about right, mine roughly takes that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimD Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Mine took loads.. I think once my larger filter, and oil cooler had filled up I was almost at 4 litres! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was your car at level? I did oil and filter change today and used 3 bottles of Redline oil. One bottle is 1 quart = 946ml, making it total of 2.8l and oil level is just below top mark.

fremyjay Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Yeah car was level, I will have to re-check it as it said on Google 3 1/2 litres so poured it in measured and left it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Normally turn engine over to get oil to filter and turbo, then top up as necessary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
