its either 4 or 6 ozs., i think 4, using Procharger oil-if you go to their website, it will tell you-the drain plug should be at 6 o clock, if the clocking is correct,
up top is a plug with a dip stick (hard to read though)

Just changed the oil in my F2 last weekend. Each Procharger bottle is 4oz and it says one bottle per oil change...

^ Yeah that ........ Had a D1 & it took 6 oz
changed to F1-A & it uses 4 oz.

Make sure you don't put in too much oil, Been there done that & it costs me a new head unit.
Had seal leaking & was having to add oil daily & was checking with dipstik, But it must not be to accurate.
when I sent it in to procharger they said to much oil in case caused all sorts of problems.

sorry to hijack, but do you have to remove the headunit to do an oil change on a D1? is it a pain in the butt?

You can change the oil with the blower in the car. It's not that bad of a job.
