Hi everyone.
I changed the engine oil and on motul website and liquimoli web site they tell that 8.6lt of engine oil should be add on change. Thats ok but when I drain the oil and change the oil.filter than put 8.6lt of oil, the dipstick shows more than max level.
For this reason I changed the oil twice.

How much oil should we put on this engine?
2017 ranger 2.2tdci 4x4 118kw(160hp)

You will never get all the oil out, so just put back in what you need. Stop at 7.5l check, go to 8l check, and just add bit at a time. But remember the 10 min window

Ad about 7.5lts and start the engine and let it idle for a minute, then turn it off.
Allow a few minutes for the oil to settle then ckeck it again.

Thank you for your advise. You are right, we just look at the specs and put that amount. Now I need to get some oil out.
I'll try to pull from oil stick place with a big syringe and aquarium hose.
I think this will be harmful for the engine to drive this way.

I pulled approximately 400cc of oil from the oil stick hole. Now it's a little bit above from max place of the stick.

Thanks for your advices.
