I assume it's not like an old Chevy with 1 qt between the marks, but have not found out anything official..
Anyone know how much fluid is missing when you are asset the lowest mark on the oil check stick?
(Don't worry I always park level and dribble in until it's at the top of the mark, but it would be nice to know what to expect)( I read some place it's 300ml low to full marks but I forget where)
I've found that I need right around 3.2 liters to show full after oil and filter change.
