Think need about 3.5Liter.  That's 3 and half bottle of 1000ml.
Buy 4 bottles this round and 3 bottles next round.  Keep the half bottle for next round.

May not be advisable to use opened engine oil that that may have oxidised.

if buy 3 bottles ONLY??? top up 3 bottles, can last?

[clarence]

You can buy 4 bottles, but if you still have any remainder left, best to discard after 6 months if you don't need to top up engine oil.

if 2 of you go at or about the same time, then you can use 7 litres for 2 cars, so no wastage ......

There is a very reasonable priced fully synthetic engine oil, Carlube Triple R 5W40 enine oil that sells at only $29.90 for 5 litres (NOT 4 litres) at Giant and Carrefour.

You can even afford to have an oil change at every 5,000km instead of the usual 10,000km since it is so cheap.

That means there is still at least 1.2 litres of old dirty engine oil in your oil slump? 

4 litres of engine oil should be used for every oil change.

our recommended amount of engine oil to be used is 3.3L or 3.5qtz

What is engine oil capacity of Latio?

I thought it is 4 litres?
