An oil-only refill and an oil-filter replacement can require different quantities. Engine, grade, production period and market must match the cited vehicle before servicing.
Year ranges here describe the cited chassis coverage, not every option sold under the same model name worldwide. The actual service manual and fitted equipment take precedence.
