As my owners manual is in best Japanese, could someone please advise on how much oil our babies take ?

Mines going for an oil change on Saturday and I want to supply the oil.

Just change my oil myself , I believe I put in about 5 litres . I did leave it to drain for approx 2 hours which a garage won't have time for .

Well, my 2002 manual is interesting on this topic
It says:
including filter: 4.8L
without filter: 4.5L
Total 5.6L
So I guess they assume some remaining in the engine.
6L should do it?

Hmmm...

I recently supplied my own oil for my first service and they used about 7 litres of finest Mobil 1.

Maybe, they just topped their own cars up!

Brian (bmarshall) said that it was 100ml/little 'x' - seems to work
