LOL.
The cars we've had take 5 qts. Overfilling has not been a problem. Buy one jug or 5-1 qt sizes.

believe me, any time you have goobers changing their own oil in the world, a certain percent will manage to overfill it, or put it in the wrong hole or something

I never ceased to be amazed at the bonehead things both backyard and professional mechanics manage to do to the poor car, it is amazing that people around the world get to work every day for the most part - lol
