#1: Gti 180 Oil amount Author: DanT, Location: Torbay, EnglandPosted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 1:20 pm ---- Sorry if this has been covered before, i did a search on my phone but could only come up with this
Which says the 180 uses 5.3L for an oil and filter change, now i don't have the owners manual to hand so am unable to check that. When i checked autodata today before i went to order my parts it still says 4.25L even for the 180.
I'd just like to verify the correct amount if anyone knows, as the oil will be in a 5L container and i'll obviously have to get another litre if it takes 5.3 as i suspect it does!
Thanks.

so 5 is generally more than enough

Always buy 6 litres
I will be buying 6 litres each time by the looks of things. I havent had the car long and it was serviced just before i bought it so this is the first time i'll be doing it, and wanted to double check which was the correct information.
Thanks for the help everyone!
