Anyone know how much oil these things take? Just bought one and tempted to take it to National for one of their el cheapo oil and filter changes.
Sump capacity of 1.4 Volvo 340 (Renault 1.4 engine)

You bought it then? National etc do it by engine size. You're OK for the cheapy one.
The message from Conor contains these words:
And the buggers still exclude diesels. If it costs 'em more - why not just say so and charge a couple of quid more.
It says "Max of 5 litres" on the ad. That's referring to oil rather than engine size. That said, I can't see a 1.4 taking more than 5l.
4 litres of 15W/40 with a filter change.
The message from "Doki" contains these words:
I notice they've taken off the "No diesels" bit but replaced it with "Not applicable to all models" which may well mean the same. I'll give 'em a try next time I need a change 'cos it's a mucky job with diesels.
