718 GT4/Spyder oil change procedure?
#31
Burning Brakes
There are multiple ways to do it. You can pour in just shy of the recommend oil change refill callout. Go run the car until the oil is up to temperature then park it so that the DME will provide the information to the dash and adjust as needed.
You can use a scan tool capable of reading the sensor in real time, check it before you empty the pan and record the value. Change the oil and refill to that value. A tool capable of a real time reading may not be economically viable to some. You would still need a tool to reset the service interval anyway however. Those capable of that aren't terribly exspensive.

Check out this thread I started about a month ago. I have yet to get a straight answer on this.

I read 7.5L online which was a starting point for me but after topping off in 300ml increments, I was able to get closer to 8.5L in there. I hate how there is no dipstick. I had to go drive the car and measure it via the computer. BMW has the same system but when I added 6.5L, the green bar was exactly at the top. I wonder how accurate the reading is....
