How much oil when servicing?

Post by 00HVB »

How much oil is replaced in 2.0TSI at the service? I don't want the dealer charging me for 5l when it may be that the car only requires 3.6l

Anyone have an idea?

Thanks C. I'll make sure he only charges me for 3.6l, or put the remaining of 5l in boot for use as top up.

Most dealers will extract/measure it from a much larger container, not a 5ltr can or similar.
