I'm going for my first oil change today, and I need to know how much quart of engine oil do I need to pour in. I heard it's about 4.5 something....
I currently drive 2002 accord 4-cylinder EX Sedan. Thanks

The Haynes manual says to pour three quarts of oil into the engine and wait a few minutes for it to settle to the bottom. After that, check the level on the dipstick, and if needed, add more until the oil level is at the appropriate mark on the dipstick.

I just changed my oil and poured 4.5 quarts, now how do I know if its really enough? I have a 2000 honda accord LX, my brother in law who drained the oil used a pressurized air to somehow remove much oil as possible.

When the engine is cold (like when its parked overnight) should the reading on the dipstick be between the lower and upper mark? Thanks much.
