The pan holds about 4 1/2 quarts, a 1/2 quart the oil filter holds.
What I did was change the oil with a new oil filter give the motor the full 5 quarts and then if the oil is not at the full mark, scribe your own line on the dip stick and use that for knowing if its full. Sometimes the dip stick tube can be knock down too far, its best to scribe your own full line when you know theres 5 quarts in it--including the oil filter.
