Is there a way to view/order without having Facebook?

This is interesting....

So a typical oil change for the stock FL5 Type R is Capacity with Filter: 5.7 quarts (5.4L)

I've confirmed this also.

So you need a 6 quarts for an oil change. So 11 bottles 1 quart each, you are going to not going to fill properly to the fill line an oil change. You actually need 12 quarts for two proper oil changes.

Am I correct?

Haha looks like you're right, they should've had 12 in there, not 11

I think part of this stems from the variance in recommendations for oil capacity. It varies from 5.4 to 5.7 qts for whatever reason. To be honest, I thought it was 5.7 qts; it's clearly stated as 5.7qts in the manual, but in my experience, the past few oil changes, 5.7 is a little overfull in my car, and I try to get all I can out of it. Ideally, 12 qts would just easily solve this concern, as you guys stated.
