| Re: How many quarts of oil use the octavia's engine? How much is a quart?  Normally around 4.5 to 5 litres is OK.

| Re: How many quarts of oil use the octavia's engine? 01 quart = 0.946 Liters, just readed an oil bottle now, so they put on the engine 4.73 liters of oil. BTW they used Castrol Sintetic 5W50 for our hot climate here, SM service oil Thanks for any input Alvaro |

| Re: How many quarts of oil use the octavia's engine? Looks like skodavenezueala is referring to quarts of a US gallon - not a UK gallon. 1 UK gallon = 4.546 litres 1 US gallon = 3.785 litres So anonymouse's figures become Quart = quarter of US gallon = 2 US pints 1 US pint = 0.473 litres (3.875 divided by 8) 2 US pints = 0.956 litres (1 US quart) 5 US quarts = 4.732 litres This matches what the bottle says.

| Re: How many quarts of oil use the octavia's engine? From what Andy says - looks like you're OK. As long as the oil meets the relevant specification and your dipstick reading is as it should be then you're on a winner Good to see you on here - again. Diversity is what it is all about.
