Engine oil capacity,Weird


Recommended Posts

I did a few times engine oil change on my 14 Spark. Every time before I drain the oil, I check the engine oil level is almost at the full mark. But when I drained the oil to theĀ pan,and measured it by a gallon, I only got 2.6 Liter used oil. Last time, I filled 3.5L oil according to manualĀ ,then measured with dipstick, that was almost 4 CM above the full mark. so I have to drain out little bit again.

Anyone has the same experience as me ?

Thank you.

I have looked all over the internet for the right fill amount for 2016 spark and I get conflicting amounts. Most say 4.2 quarts and some say 3.7 quarts.For my vehicle it is 3.7. The last person who did my change used 4.2 and oil was leaking out of the ports and dripping on the pavement. I normally do it myself but I had them do it since they where changing the tires and it was cheap. I can't believe the mechanics can't even find the right fill level. I just drained it out myself and filled it with the right amount. I'll never take it back to a mechanic for oil changes.
