I think it takes somewhere between 4 and 5, add 3, check it, add more until the stick says it's full.


DON'T OVERFILL.

when you do the oil change put 4 qts first. then turn on the car to get the new oil following through. Then go check the oil again.

Theres no exact how many quarts to put although there is an avg. It all depends on how much was previously in and how much was drained. Put 3-3.5 and put until you are full. Don't forget to run the engine as well.
