Vaughany Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 Hi Everyone My Soop is due an oil change, I was going to use Millers 5w50 XFS Fully Synthetic. This oil should be okay for the Soop should'nt it? Please coorect me if I am wrong but for an oil change it is usually about 6 1/2 litres required? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 5w50 synthetic should be fine. 6.5 litres? I thought it was more like 5! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 That oil will be fine, it's a very popular oil with the board members, but you definitely don't want to be pouring in 6.5 litres!! 5 litres should do the trick, maybe just a fraction less and then check the dipstick after 10 minutes or so.

Ian C Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I changed my oil last night and checked the official Toyota fluid capacities and it's 5l including filter. Incidentally, Valvoline synpower 5w50 seems to have changed to Valvoline somethingelseIcantremember 5w50, anyone else noticed this? -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
