How much oil does a S2K use?

HI, guys just wondering how much of the follow oil does your S2K use.

Engine oil: 4.7L
Gearbox oil: 1.8-2L (Two of 1L bottle)
Diff oil: 1L
Coolant: 7L (5L + Two of 1L bottle)

Am i missing something else..?

Engine Oil is 4.7 Litres which is 5 quarts. Gearbox oil you just fill till its up to the hole.

The engine should be warm when measuring oil. The capacity is 5 quarts which comes to 4.7 litres. Oil filter takes in abit but wouldnt be 300mls worth.

i thought the engine should be cold and left overnight so that the oil would be all in the sump

Checking when warm will not account for the oil pumped into the upper parts of the engine and could result in overfilling.

So in general when checking oil, it should be done when the engine is cold?
