Guys, was planning to do a oil change tomorrow on my t-reg 1.8 petrol hippo and wondered if anyone knew how many litres of oil the engine takes to fill from empty?...

O, and also, if anyone have any advice on doing an oil & filter change on the hippo - I've learnt over the last few months of hippo ownership that just about everything on these beasts is more tricky and troublesome than should normally be the case!:p
