Quick quesiton about oil amount in 02 GS300
Can anyone tell me how much oil should be put in an 02 GS300. I have always put in 6 quarts but at my recent oil change I had lexus do it and I gave my dealer 6 quarts and he only used 5 1/2. Was I alway putting in to much oil?

I know he changed the filter because it was def turned a different way before they changed it. I guess I will wait till morning and then check it again. But you know what who cares the car is a company car that is going back in March and then I will get my new GS. Which I can't wait for, that car looks so good. I don't know why I get so crazy about a car that is't even mine.

I use about 5 1/3 quarts in mine. I find that will put the oil level right at the mid point of the dipstick. Since it doesn't burn any oil, I don't see why I need to add 6 full quarts. But I think anything between 5 and 6 quarts should be fine.
