from  m http://www.mr2roc.org/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... l+capacity (http://www.mr2roc.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3222&highlight=oil+capacity) m

"Interesting one this, just got mine and from my service records and looking on here,some 2s use a bit of oil,particularly if using fully synthetic ,from what I've seen. The engine doesn't have a very large capacity for oil , only about 3.7L or so ,reading the handbook. "

If you're changing the filter as well, then you can put the whole 4l exactly in. That's what I did recently, and it's resulted in a perfect level.
