Oil Capacity?

**Brammer** · 05-23-2009

What is the oil capacity of a 2002 Grand Prix GT. I'm changing the oil tomorrow and I need to know how much to get. Also is 10w-30 the recommended weight? I'm in Southern VA climate.

Thanks,

Eric B.

I'm pretty sure it's 4.5 quarts, and 10w-30 is the recommended.

I've always only put in 4.5 to bring it right to the top on mine. And yes I let it sit over night and lift the front to drain as much out as humanly possible.

lol, the extra 1/2 quart is extra cooling

besides, i buy the 5 quarter any ways.

As long as you're not going over the hash marks on the dip stick, put in as much as you like. Like I said, 4.5 quarts on the dot is what brings mine to the top of the hash marks.

I always put in 5 quarts. It always goes over the top of the hash marks. I have never had a problem. No leaks. No issues.

FWIW.
