How much oil does a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5.3 engine hold?

Question

Accepted Answer

A 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 truck with a 5.3L V8 engine has a motor oil capacity of 6 US quarts including the filter. It should use 5W-30 synthetic motor oil. The oil drain plug requires a 15mm head size and 20 lbs-ft of torque to remove. It is recommended to change the oil every 7,500 miles or 12 months. If you do the job yourself, expect to spend $30 to $45 on oil, but taking it to a shop may cost between $105 and $140.
