should take about 5 quarts, it will say in your owners manual.

I personally run royal purple, I know a lot of people on here don't like it. Most people like mobil 1 full synthetic or amsoil.

Pretty much any synthetic will be fine if you want synthetic.

Top synthetics are Royal Purple and Amsoil. Some claim RP can leave graphite residue behind.
