But in the technical doc (2005_Crossfire_SRT6_Service_Manual.pdf, page 0-5), it's 11.8 qts. I'm probably misinterpreting the figures, but what's wrong ?

BTW, is EGX the engine code for the 3.2L (non-SRT) ?

Thanks a lot.
On a more serious note, the 11.8 quarts (11.2 liters) you referencing above is the stated Cooling Capacity for the 3.2L V6 NA engine. The Cooling Capacity for the SRT-6 V6 is stated as 14.5 liters (15.3 quarts). The correct oil capacity with a filter change is listed below those figures on Page 0-5 of the Service Manual at 8.0 liters (8.5 quarts). The oil change with filter capacity was listed incorrectly in the 2004 version of the XFire Service Manual.
