    2.0 Skyactiv oil capacity - quick question

    Put this question in the neurotic category but here goes: I just did an oil change on my 2012 Skyactiv 3. The manual calls for 4.6 qts of oil, which is what I put in, and the dip stick shows dead center between the bottom and top holes when I go to measure the oil. Seems like not an issue...

    Hi, I have a Skyactiv 3 and would like to possibly autocross it, as I have over the past 7 years with other cars I've owned. I'm casual and usually run only a couple events per year and keep the cars stock. Can I expect any durability issues from the Skyactiv 2L? I'm impressed with the motor...
