Default quick question about oil changes

Hey guys, I have a quick, stupid question, and I didn't see it in the oil faq, so...

How much oil does the s2k take? I'm pretty sure it's 5 quarts, but I may be mistaken.

Thanks.

it should be in your manual and about 5 quarts but aways check the dip stick to be sure. i usually check it right after i change the oil then i check it again in the morning the next few days to be safe

Varies based upon how much of the oil you get out. Like they said, over 5 quarts. Let is set for a while with first 5 (after brief start to circulate and fill filter) then check again and top up.

5.1 brings mine to the mid-point on the dipstick (the space with all the tiny x's). I think my manual says 5.1.
