My typical oil changes consists of warming up the engine, draining the oil overnight or couple days, and soaking up oil within oil filter housing. With this method I put in exactly 9 liters with oil levels showing near the middle or slightly higher.
Cheers, so the cooler contain around 1 liter, interesting. Sounds like draining the filter ca for 0.2L will not make a significant difference?
