Should be 4.3 liters completely empty. I would add 3 liters and check the oil level, then add another liter if required by the dipstick. Once at about 4 liters, run the engine and recheck the oil level. Add more if needed.
Should hold 4.3 liters if dry. With an oil change and filter replacement, I would add 3 liters, check the oil level and add the 4th if it will fit based on the dip stick measurement. Then run the engine, check for leaks and stop the engine to check the oil level again. Add oil to the appropriate level on the dip stick.
Manual transmissions have a fill plug half way up the side. Remove the plug with the car level. The tranny is full when the oil is at the bottom of the hole. I use a tube on a liter bottle of oil. Put the tube in and add until oil starts to come back out.
Try 4 quarts and start the engine to fill the filter. Shut engine off, wait 15 minutes for the oil to go back to the pan, then check the oil dipstick. If it's low, put in another quart.
Hi! What I've done in the past is purchase two 5 litre containers of the correct grade oil then carefully topped up until just showng below Max level on dipstick I run the car briefly to check for leaks and to fill up new oil filter I let it settle on level ground with engine switched off then top up slowly to correct level, Oh I think you'll find 6 litres is the Norm!
Hapy New Year!
