Afternoon all.

Very quick question, as I have seen varying answers. What is the volume of oil needed for an oil change (including filter change)? I have seen between 5.5 litres - 6.5 litres listed.

Also, Castrol Edge TWS for everyone?

Thanks!
 
I just switched to Liqui Moly 10W-60. Cheaper than TWS, and it has quieted my valve train somewhat, a comment I'd read from others before switching.

Great link thanks. Just used that guide to do an interim between services change after being scared by the recent issues with camshafts. 15% off at ECP so got 8L of 10W60 Castrol Edge for £60 plus a genuine filter from the stealers. Took exactly 5.5L to the halfway mark. Didn't know about the dipstick half-way thing. I have always done my cars to the max so learned something new.
