I'm about to do an Oil change in my car and cant find out how much Oil it takes. So my question is how much does it take? I am thinking 4 1/2 quarts.
 
if you dont know how much it takes you could always put some in, pull dip stick out and check it, add accordingly. also after changing, wouldnt be a bad idea to start the car up (make sure you have oil pressure) let the car run a little, shut it back off, let it sit awhile, then RE check the oil and add accordingly.

Hayne's manual states 3 Quarts of Oil should be added.
That would be wrong. The FSM says 4.6 quarts including filter and that the filter holds a half quart for a 2.0L. So without a filter it would be a little over 4 quarts. The 1.8L holds a half quart less.
