also keep in mind, if you dont change the filter, then minus about .2 quarts or so so.
and it isnt ALWAYS 3.4 or 3.7, thats only if you fully drain the oil to the point where it wont drip at all. when u fill in, pour in 3.5 quarts then check the dipstick... then if needed, refill another quart or 2.
When you are done putting on your new filter, and filling up the engine with oil. Make sure you start the car, and recheck the amount of oil. The oil will go down, cause it will fill up in the filter.
You can download the manual in .pdf format from Honda's Owner's Link website. I think you have to register but it's painless. I think it's about 6 Mb or so.
