CAPACITIES (in litres)
Oil capacities are defined according to the following methods
Draining of the engine lubrication system by GRAVITY
Place the vehicle on horizontal ground (in the high position if hydropneumatic suspension).
The engine should be hot (oil temperature 80°C).
Drain the sump by gravity.
Remove the oil filter cartridge (time for draining and drip-drip = 15
minutes approx.).
Refit the cap with a new seal.
Refit a new oil filter cartridge.
Refill the engine with oil (see table for oil capacity).
Start the engine to fill the oil filter cartridge.
Stop the engine (allow to stabilise for 5 minutes).
ESSENTIAL: Systematically check the oil level using the oil dipstick.
Draining methods
Place the vehicle on horizontal ground (in the high position if
hydropneumatic suspension).
The engine should be hot (oil temperature 80°C).
Remove the oil by suction through the dipstick tube.
Remove the oil filter cartridge.
Maintain the suction of oil in the sump (15 minutes approx.).
Refit a new oil filter cartridge.
Refill the engine with oil (see table for oil capacity).
Start the engine to fill the oil filter cartridge.
Stop the engine (allow to stabilise for 5 minutes).
WARNING: Remove the suction container before starting the engine.

Use of oil grade 10W40.
It is possible to use the semi-synthetic oil 7000 10W40 on HDi and HDi
FAP vehicles.
WARNING: To avoid difficulties when starting from cold (< 20°C), use
5W40 oil.
For more details, see the oil usage table (paragraph 3.3).
Commercial description for energy economy oil.
TOTAL ACTIVA FUTUR 9000 5W30 (France only).
TOTAL QUARTZ FUTUR 9000 5W30 (except France).
The exclusions for use of this oil are the following:
- XSARA VTS 2.0 16V (XU10J4RS).
- JUMPER/RELAY 2.8 HDi and 2.8 TDi (SOFIM engine).
- HDi FAP vehicles.
- CITROËN C3 HDi 16V (DV4TED4).

Engine oil norms.
Current norms.
The classification of these engine oils is established by the following
recognised organisations:
- S.A.E : Society of Automotive Engineers.
- API: American Petroleum Institute.
- ACEA: Association des Constructeurs Européens d'Automobiles.
S.A.E. Norms - Table for selection of engine oil grade.
Selection of engine oil grades recommended for climatic conditions in
countries of distribution (see table, paragraph 3.3).
Evolution of the norms to 01/01/2003.
ACEA 2003 norms.
The meaning of the first letter has not changed, it still corresponds
to the type of engine:
- A: petrol and dual fuel petrol / LPG engines.
- B: diesel engines.
The figure following the first letter corresponds to the type of oil:
- 3: high performance oils.
- 4: oils specifically for direct injection diesel engines.
- 5: very high performance oils permitting lower fuel consumption, specific to
direct injection diesel engines.
Example:
- ACEA A3: high performance oils specifically for petrol and dual fuel petrol/
LPG engines.
- ACEA A/B: blended oils giving very high performance for all engines, also
permitting better fuel economy, specifically for direct injection diesel engines.
NOTE: From 01/01/2003 there is no longer any reference to the year of
creation of the norm (example : ACEA A3/B3 98 becomes ACEA
10
A3/B3).
LUBRICANTS - TOTAL recommended oils
API Norms:
The meaning of the first letter has not changed, it still corresponds to the
type of engine:
- S: petrol and dual fuel petrol / LPG engines.
- C: diesel engines.
The second letter corresponds to the degree of evolution of the oil
(ascending order).
Example: Norm SL is more severe than norm SJ, corresponding to
a higher level of performance.
Recommendations.
ESSENTIAL: To preserve engine performances, all engines fitted in
CITROËN vehicles must be lubricated with high quality oils (syntheticor semi-synthetic).
CITROËN engines are lubricated at the factory with TOTAL oil of grade
S.A.E 5W-30.
TOTAL oil of grade S.A.E 5W-30 allows improved fuel economies
(approx 2.5%).
The oil 5W30 is used only for the following engines (year 2004):
- XU10 J4RS: XSARA VTS 2.0i 16V (3-door).
- SOFIM: JUMPER / RELAY 2.8 TDi and 2.8 HDi.
- HDi: With particle filter (FAP).
- DV4 TED4: CITROËN C3 1.4 16V HDi.
- EW 12J4: CITROËN C8 2.2i.
- EW 10A: CITROËN C4 and C5 2.0i.
- EW10J4S engine: CITROËN C4.
WARNING: CITROËN engines prior to model year 2000 do not have
to be lubricated with oils adhering to the norms:
- ACEA AI-98 and API SJ/CF EC or current norms ACEA A5/B5.
Denomination of TOTAL oils according to country of marketing:
- TOTAL ACTIVA (France only).
- TOTAL QUARTZ (outside France).
