in the book in halfords it says to fill with 3.5ltr but in the subaru book it says 4ltr? but in the scooby book it says Ive got a 60ltr fuel tank so im not taking the the book serious???

I think ill risk it and buy the other ltr at the end of the day its my only transport so need to get there some how.

Ive just put this in my gearbox and as per halfords are **** and only had 3 bottles left so that is 3ltrs I need to get down to the other halfords and see if they have any there would it be alright to drive with 3 ltrs in at the moment just to go and get another bottle? its only about 3 miles away.

You have to ask yourself one question, do i feel lucky:D
If it were me, i wouldnt risk it but thats just me;)

Ive had a look, 3.2 -3.5 litres, gearbox/centre diff.
Going by that i would think youd be ok.

now ive gone the other way!!!!

just done mine... read the book.. 4 liters ?? shoulndt it be litres.... which eqautes ?? (drunk) to approx 8.8 pints ie just over a gallon..

now if my maths is shot .. a quart is two pints 3.5 quarts is then 7 pints... see where im going...

ive just put 4 'liters' in and am way over the full marker ..

have i put 1.8 pints (just under a litre) too much in

and thinking should i syphon some out

bloody metric and they said its universal

so what is the correct figure to put in

marts When I first did it with halfords own oil I put that upto 4ltr and was fine but im taking the recommendation of the oil company this time and sticking to 3.5ltr im going to see how it goes and if need be ill put abit more in.
