oil capacity is 5.5L. with filter. depending on how much comes out determines how much you put in. most only put 5 back in as prolly still half a litre in sump and around engine. i always buy 6 litres and nearly always end up having to open the litre bottle. i let mine drain for quite a while though. normally pull the plug and then go and do other things. obviously in the workplace you can't afford to let a car drain for half an hour or so.
