When I removed the drain plug it drained a lot more than my typical oil change. I've always had V6 motors and they typically have 5.5 quarts when filled. I thought that 6.1 quarts seemed high for a 3.2L engine, but 8.5 quarts was a big surprise. The DIY oil change was about $90. Good thing its synthetic. I can see why people are complaining about paying over $100 for oil change service at different places.
