The manual that comes with your car will tell you how much you need :yes:

Assuming you have the 2008:

4-cyl will need 4.4 US qt
V6 will need 4.5 US qt

Your dealer shouldn't have a problem with you bringing in your own oil. I do it all the time. I bring my own filter too.

You'll find numerous threads on oil and filters. Just do a search.

Or do it yourself and save the labor charge.
