you have to start the car after you add 4 qts and then you check and add what it needs, otherwise it will read low,

if you just add and dont' start then add more you are not accounting for the filter and what should be in the block, so just start it when you are filling after you have put in 4 qts then add about 1 and a half more, what ever the stick says

i used a mobil 1 5 quart jug and nothing else and im right at full.

this is a ridiculous argument.

also ridiculous to let your car drain out for an hour
