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.

I think he deserves better from all of you.
Elf is a major oil company in Europe, you may have seen the name on some F1 cars.
