I believe it is 3.3 quarts. Check your oil with it upright and look through the sight glass on the right side.

The person I bought my 02 from changed the cct at 4500 miles with another oem one, it went bad again at 9000 miles and I put in a manual one. I did have to readjust it again at about 15000 miles.
