Oil quantities

[jase]

Hey all..

On clubvr4.org there is a list of the different oil quantities..

I want to work on my car today, but I dont know how much oil I should be putting in..

Most importantly is:
engine
gearbox
transfer case

But I figure it's important information and we should have it here anyway

[jase]

Turbo sump, 4 litres. If you're jspeccing, add another 0.3-0.5 litres for two reasons.

A) Oil cooler & Extra lines

B) Your car eats oil.
