Default Oil capacity on 2GRFE

2016 Lexus ES 350 first time oil change. What is the oil capacity? I have the cartridge filter and 5quarts of 0w-20 will that be enough?, I tried google and I saw how to videos but no mention of how many quarts I need. I don't have the owners manual.....

The owner's manual is your friend.

From page 518 of the 2017 ES manual--oil capacity--6.4 quarts. I'm sure that it is in a similar location for your 2016 ES.

An electronic version of the manual is even better than the printed manual. By using the search feature with the PDF of the manual, you can usually find what you are looking for in seconds.

These things take quite a bit of oil. The 3.5L in my ES350 takes more oil than the 6.3L in my RX-7.

I agree. Toyota 2uzfe v8 takes 6.5quarts and its a 4.7liter. My other 3uzfe v8 takes 5.5 quarts and it's a 4.3liter.. Maybe it's the 10k oci in the new cars. Thanks all!
