Default RTFM.

Depends on your MY I think; I seem to recall older cars take just over 4 (like 4.3 maybe?); while later years it's 3.7. But the exact # is in your manual.

yeah and then ask around anyways, because the manual is notorious for being inaccurate

My dealer said 4.5, but when I got my car back they only used 4 quarts, the 5th bottle was unopened
