Low Oil Light (Buzzer) Questions??

How many quarts do you have left when the oil light(buzzer) comes on? I know it comes on around turns sometimes, but when you are just sitting, how many quarts are left?

Also, how many quarts of oil are you guys putting in your car when you do an oil change( Turbo II)?

I think I had heard somewhere that it was 2 Quarts when it came on... I'm not positive though. As far as how much oil is put in at chaging time: 4.5 quarts. You cannot actually change ALL of the oil in the car, you will always have some left in the rotors and in the oil cooler. This is why you can never add the 6 quarts or so that Mazda says it holds.
