2005 SATURN VUE oil capacity

When to Add Engine OilIf the oil is below the MIN (minimum) mark for the 2.2L L4
engine or below the lower mark (B) for the 3.5L V6
engine, you will need to add at least one quart/liter of oil.
But you must use the right kind. This section explains
what kind of oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity,
seeCapacities and Specications on page 5-99.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If your engine has
so much oil that the oil level gets above the upper
mark that shows the proper operating range,
your engine could be damaged.
SeeEngine Compartment Overview on page 5-12for
the location of the engine oil ll cap.
Be sure to add enough oil to put the level somewhere in
the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the
way back in when you are through. 2.2L L4 (L61) Engine
