Go to your dealership and buy the cap, o-ring and filter together. It's about $11 and well worth it. The o-ring tends to wear out and then you end up with a leak. I usually put right aroun 5 1/2 quarts in mine.

I put in 6 1/2 because I like the oil up to the full line on my cars. 6 quarts should be some where in the safe range
