Most US manufactured vehicles hold 5 quarts, but to be certain, drain the oil, replace the filter and put the drain plug back in, then add 4 quarts. Start the engine for about 30 seconds and watch for oil leaks around the oil filter. Then shut down the engine, let it sit for a minute, then check the oil again. After you start the engine the filter is filled with oil and you will be able to accurately determine how much more needs to be put in. If it's down, add a quart, let the oil settle briefly then check it again. Usually it will take 4 or 5 for passanger vehicles and some trucks might take more.

Can a 1998 Chevy Malibu LS hold more than 6.9 quarts of transmission fluid/or how many quarts does it take to fill up the transmission after being drained?
It should hold 10 quarts.
Should take 5 qts. with a new filter.
13 quarts total, for all 99-04 models
There are two possibilities. One engine take s4 quarts, the second takes 6 quarts. Add 4 quarts, and check the dipstick, adding more if needed.
A 1996 Chevy Lumina transmission will hold four and a half quarts of oil. A 1996 Chevy Lumina will also hold 12 quarts of transmission fluid.
