I just picked up my CL this weekend. Its a 99 3.0 and its in need of an oil change. The previous owner did not have the owners manual. I ordered it off ebay but it won't get here for a few days. Just wondering if someone knows it off hand or could take a look for me. I did a search, could only find tranny and coolant capacities but nothing for oil on the 3.0. I did find it for the 2.2 though but that doesn't help me. Thank you!

 

5ish quarts

 

I'll put in 4.5ish and then check the dipstick, go from there. Thank you!

 

Goodluck, and congrats on the purchase - now dont go redlining your car all over the place and your tranny should last a while.

 

Thanks! I won't be driving the car that much. I bought the car for my brother to commute to school with. Its on its second tranny, the first was replaced at 58k under an extended warranty. It shifts very smoothly but I will be telling him not to redline/drive fast.

 

Right around 4.5 is the recommended
