The 2016 GMC Terrain has different oil capacities depending on the engine size, with the 3.6L holding 6 quarts and the 2.4L holding 5 quarts. It's recommended to use SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil to keep the engine parts cool, lubricated, and prevent them from grinding against each other, reducing wear and damage. An oil change for your Terrain typically costs around $140 for parts and labor. It's suggested to get an oil change every 7,500 miles or every 6 months. Signs that it's time for an oil change include increased engine noise, shaking while idling, excess exhaust, or detecting an oil smell inside the vehicle.
