Just fill it until it started coming out the oil cap. Then you know it's full :-)

I find putting a large funnel in and filling it until the funnel is brimmed up is the best way.

Gives you a little bit in reserve :D

Guys, guys.

You forgot that 4 litres needs pouring over the outside of the engine. Make sure it gets everywhere Ben, but not a drop must go on the floor, otherwise you'll have to put another 4 litres on.

Engine oil works well to cool the gearbox down - which means smoother gear changes and less friction so the car accelerates faster.

If you can afford a litre or so of baby oil, that works even better in the gearbox! It's not good enough for the engine though as thats under a lot more stress, but I think if you add a bit of corn starch to thinken it up a bit, it should be fine. But don't add too much otherwise it will go gloopy and not be effective enough to protect your engine.

No banter here.

Well Danny was the only one being serious. Threw me off a bit.

Did wonder how you would have been able to tell gearbox oil wasn't thick enough, you'll just pour it in and hope for the best!

Yup! 10w/30. Honda recommends to use it temporarily though, but I have heard of people using it for 10-20,000 miles no problem :)
