★ Top Answer
The 2012 Chevy Silverado 5.3 Liter V8 engine requires 6 US quarts of 5W-30 motor oil. It is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic oil, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months if using conventional oil. Synthetic oil offers advantages such as better lubrication, longer service intervals, and improved performance in cold weather conditions. Thinner viscosity oils are ideal for winter use. Branded lubricants are known to provide up to double the protection against corrosion compared to aftermarket options. The cost for an oil change and filter replacement for the Chevy Silverado typically ranges from $130 to $145 including parts and labor.
