well atleast you dont have 7 quarts in there and its still low
i bet you didnt pull the front drain plug right? also since you are having problems getting the whole oil change thing down, i'd suggest doing the whole oil change. ie oil AND filter, i know your filter is probably new anyway but without changing it as well you dont know "exactly" how much oil to add
pull BOTH drain plugs and the filter, replace both drain plugs and a new filter, then add 5 quarts, this'll do it
