Post by: TALLMAN on Friday, 10 March 2017, 03:23 AM
Does anybody know the quantity of oil (ml's) between the lower and the higher oil level marks?

In a word...NO :imrgreen:

I usually aim to fill midway between the two marks.

I've just changed the oil and filled upto the top mark to compensate for the filter

If you can see oil level in "eye", its enough. Most turbo versions of 14 has to be kept near lower mark due to low mounted turbo.
