Is it me or do our mustangs' require more than 5 quarts of oil? My dipstick always shows that 5 isn't enough and 5 1/2 qt's get up to the half-way mark in the designated area.

How much do you guys put? I've even gone ahead and put six! :/ The oil didn't pass the "HIGH" mark on the dipstick as it was right on the mark, but it just sounds dangerous....

I hope you all know that the new mustangs take 6 quarts and are just fooling around.....That's why Ford publishes owners manuals?????????????

what does the new mustangs taking 6qts have to do with anything?

And nacrchi if your car takes 5 1/2qt's, a 1/2qt of oil wont put you in the danger zone. Now a qt and half is a different story.

I put 6 quarts of Mobil 1 evertime. It's weird because my 1.6L sentra takes 6 qt's as well. haha

I just wanted to make sure by the way....Now I wont worry bout pouring too much oil.

i put 9 quarts in mine. but thats with aftermarket pan stock pan is 6 quarts. running only 5 is dangerous

Then why does it say 5 qts in the owners manual and also in Autozones records?
