Hi All,
New here. Have an old work horse Accord V6 for commuting that I bought off my brother-in-law. He lost the owner's manual for it and I have neglected buying a Hayne's manual for it (for now).

I searched around and found a thread where someone mentioned its 5 quarts to replace the oil in the V6 for oil change. I just wanted to see if someone could confirm that? Thanks so much everyone!

You can always start with 4.5qts of oil; fire it up for a min or two to see if there's any leak. Then shut if off; check the oil level and top it off so its full.

That's basically what I did. I started off with 4 qts., let it get down in the pan and then checked the level. Still needed at least 1 more qt to get to the full line. I'm just double-checking if that's the appropriate amount so I'll know nothing serious is wrong

its 4.6 qts with filter change in my owners manual (97 EX V6) I would check the level regularly, mine uses about a qt every 1000 miles or so. not dripping/burning. just using it.
