When changing oil and replacing both filters, how much oil is needed in Ounces? The manual lists the amount in tenths and that throws me off on what amount to pour in.

To convert decimal part of a Quart to Ounces, take any decimal amount and times it by 32...
Manual says 6.1 Quarts so the decimal part would be .1 X 32 = 3.2 Ounces.

When changing the Engine Oil filter AND the DCT filter the Honda Talon takes 6.1 Quarts of oil.
So, 6.1 Quarts = 6 Quarts, 3.2 Ounces.

I'm just stating the following just because it seems to be a issue that many, including dealers, need to read!

Be sure to drain BOTH Engine oil plugs, and NOT all 3 unless you are changing the sub-transmission oil too.
The forward plug is the Sub-Transmission. It is NOT part of the first service but we recommend changing it too.
The middle plug is the Oil Pan, it is part of the oil change!
The rear plug is the Oil Tank, it is part of the oil change!

PS, The OEM skid plate is marked because we been through this with the Pioneer already!

Thanks.
