Is it normal for the engine to cut out when the dipstick is pulled out?

Im confused: in the online tech manual it says oil capacity:
Total (dry engine) = 4.9 L
Engine oil replacement = 3.7 L
Engine oil + oil filter replacement = 4 L
so how much oil is needed in an oil change?

Ive put in 5-30w castrol magnatax synthetic oil to attempt to quieten down the ticking is this grade ok for the british climate, or is it better for colder temperatures?

Just changed my oil and put in 4.5 litres does that sound like the right amount? Also i put in 5-30w castrol magnatax synthetic oil as my engine ticks a bit. I live in the U.K where the climate averages between 0-25 centigrade, is 5-30w grade oil more for a climate below 0 degrees?

On the V6 where should the needle be on temperature gauge when the engine is warmed up?

I viewing a car to buy at a 91 V6 tommorrow on 90000miles any tips on what to look out for e.g engine condition?

just wondering what year your 1.5 dohc was as i need a clutch for my 91 import.

When pushing the throttle hard especially in fifth gear at around 60mph the revs rise to the redline and the car does not accellerate. This is a problem in all gears but in higher gears its more apparent. If u attempt to keep pushing the gas hard the clutch starts to smell. The clutch does not seem ...
