Also they may well be dry fill volume which you won't achieve in the workshop although you may get close if you drain overnight. You always do it by the dipstick. Haynes advised pouring in half the required volume and then check it and top up to the mark. Then with a new oil filter, start the engine and run for a few seconds then stop wait a few minutes and check again. __________________ '04 V40 1.9D
