Hey everyone quick question. My wife drives a 2013 civic sedan EXL with Nav and went to do her oil change today. After it was done i was looking at the paper work and saw they charged her for quantity of 5 for oil.
So, as far as I could remember, the car can take 3.9-4.2 quarts. So i didn't know if the car can actually take 5qt or did they mischarge me or they put 4 point something and charged me for 5.
So I called and asked and they said they put 5. I asked i didn't know the car can take 5 i though the manual said something around 4. The rep told me it's 5 total since they took the filter out, the car takes 5.
I thanked her and that was that.
My main reason was because i will be performing an oil change myself on my 2014 civic sedan and although i have 5qt 0w-20, I thought it would only take 4.2.
Any idea from people out there who have done their oil change or got it done at honda? Should i put 5qt after the new filter? and if you get oil changes at honda, do they charge you for 5qt or 4qt?
