Question How much oil on change?
Book says 4.6 quarts w/ filter. Seems like 5 fits fine acording to stick. Should I stick with the 4.6 quarts or is 5 .0 fine?

What do the Acura Techs here say?

The opinion of the dip stick is I what i pay attention to...
Oh and this may sound silly, but...
Make sure the car is level -- not on any inclination...

You can never believe what's written on the receipt. Your best just asking the service manager (assuming he'll tell you the truth ).
