6 because you need the .1 . Don't worry just buy 6 and check the level until u get it at the right mark. Good Luck.

it's called "making money off you".
-pour in 5 quarts.
-check the level.
-you should be at the max.
-drive for a week.
-check again. you should be fine.

a lot of people will tell you 6 quarts but the dip stick doesn't lie to me...
