Engine oil capacity depends mostly on engine size and configuration. Use this chart as a ballpark for buying oil; the exact figure for your engine is in the owner manual and on many oil-cap labels.
| Engine | Typical capacity (with filter) |
|---|---|
| 4-cylinder, 1.5 – 2.0 L | 4.0 – 4.5 qt |
| 4-cylinder, 2.4 – 2.5 L | 4.5 – 5.0 qt |
| V6, 3.0 – 3.6 L | 5.0 – 6.0 qt |
| V8, 4.6 – 5.0 L | 6.0 – 8.0 qt |
| V8, 5.7 – 6.2 L | 7.0 – 8.5 qt |
| Diesel, 6.6 – 6.7 L | 12 – 15 qt |
Always confirm with the manual. Fill to the dipstick mark rather than dumping the full chart amount — capacities vary with filter and oil cooler.
