The 2007 GMC Acadia comes equipped with a 3.6 L V6 engine, which requires SAE 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil for optimal performance in all weather conditions. This vehicle can hold up to 5.5 quarts of oil including the filter, and the drain plug should be torqued to 18 ft/lbs. The 5W-30 designation indicates that the oil will have a thickness of 5 at startup, with the "W" standing for winter, and a thickness of 30 at normal operating speeds. Proper oil maintenance is essential to keep the engine clean and lubricate its components to reduce friction. It is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. If you opt to have a mechanic perform the oil change, it typically costs between $40 and $50 for labor.
