How Many Liters of Engine Oil Does a Car Need?

[DiJocelyn]

Car engine oil capacity is generally 5 liters. The capacity for oil change and situations requiring oil change are as follows: Oil change capacity: Different car models have different sizes of oil pans, so the amount of oil required for a change varies. Generally, compact cars need about 4L, mid-size and large cars about 4.5L, and micro cars about 3.5L. Please refer to the maintenance manual for specific details. Situations requiring oil change: Check the oil viscosity; if there is no viscosity, the oil needs to be changed; the oil color turns black; excessive black particles, metal shavings, or carbon deposits in the oil; the oil smells unusual. If the oil is not changed, it will turn black and deteriorate, reducing lubrication effectiveness and potentially causing engine damage.
