Guys,

I was just wondering. I was told only 5 qrts. That just doesn't seem correct with the larger pan.
Is this correct?

Also i was told that the oil level will show just above the Low level when filled. I understand the reasoning, but just want to check to make sure i have the correct info.

Any help is appreciated.

Thx

 

i used just under 5, like 4.75

 

It should be 6.25 qts with the bigger pan I think

 

I use 6 with my AAM spacer.

 

This is an APS TT kit, not an AAM spacer or JWT kit. The return lines run low into the pan, trust me it is NOT 6.25 quarts

Anything over 5 qts and you will have some smoking issues with the turbos, the pickup is dropped lower into the pan so you will be ok with 5 quarts.

 

like i said, i was told 5 but i just wanted to be sure. It's hard to tell on that dipstick where the level is. I hate that dipstick.

Thanks guys

 

I actually had it right on the letter "L"

 

I only had it installed a week now and it looks like there isn't any on the dipstick at all. So i put a half quart in. Checked it this morning & it looks the same. I know i have to run it and then check it after 10-20 mins of being stopped.
Is it natural to burn thru oil at first?
I had a small leak at the plug which i fixed but i don't think i lost 1/2 quart.

 

the dipsticks on our cars are retarded, plus when the oil is new its really hard to see.

And no it is not natural to burn oil at all

 

I put 6 in mine but I aso have 2 aftermarket oil coolers to fill.

 

The car stock takes ~5qts. I thought the APS larger pan took an extra 0.5 qts.

 

I use 6, i believe technically its 5.5 if you want it to be right at the L on the dipstick

 

cool. Appreciate the input.
