How much oil does a 02 GT holds? I bought the car uses and gave it's first oil change. The owners manual says it holds 5 quarts. I put 5 quarts in the car but the oil level barely measured on the dip stick. I called a dealer to ask them. They said it hols 6 quarts or so. I added another quart. I also noticed the dip stick had a bad "bend" in it which wouldn't measure the oil at the right level. Also I have a 8 quart drain pan. When I drained the oil out the pan was almost full. The dealership i bought the car from had given it a fresh oil change. I believe the mechanic overfilled the crank case because he was working off the bent dip stick. He kept adding oil until it read full. I bought a new dip stick. It reads much better that the old one. However, it doesn't read full with 6 quarts of oil in the crank case. I'm reading the oil level on level ground. Does the GT have a oil cooler? I couldn't find one. What are you guys thoughts. Thanks Pearl02.
