thanks. I already checkd the manual, I didn't see anything that said the amount. The only thing that was in there was HOW to change the oil.

For reference it's in the specifications/capacities section. Lists all fluid capacities and other noteworthy items.

Not really, overfilling isn't great either. Just do 4 1/4 quarts (FYI thats 4 bottles and 8oz), and keep the rest of the bottle in case you need to add some later. Eventually you may have enough partial bottles to make a quart during an oil change, which will save you a few bucks.
