Here's why:
* Engine Variations: The 2001 Sable had several V6 engine options, and each engine has a different oil capacity.
* Oil Change Type: The amount of oil needed depends on whether you are just topping off the oil or doing a full oil change.
To find the correct oil capacity for your car, you should:
1. Check your owner's manual: The most accurate information is found in the manual specific to your vehicle's year, make, and model.
2. Look at the oil dipstick: If you don't have the owner's manual, you can find the capacity on the dipstick itself. It may have a marking indicating the maximum oil level.
3. Consult an online resource: Websites like AutoZone and Advance Auto Parts often have detailed information on oil capacities for different vehicles.
Important Note: Be sure to use the correct type of oil for your engine. The owner's manual will list the recommended oil viscosity and type.
