The 2008 GMC Yukon offers a variety of options with three different V8 engines: the 4.8L, 5.3L, or 6.2L. Each engine requires 6 quarts of SAE 5W-30 full synthetic motor oil. While it's possible to temporarily use SAE 5W-40 conventional oil, it's essential to switch back to the recommended oil as soon as possible. The lower viscosity of the recommended oil, indicated by the smaller numbers, is crucial for engine performance. Opting for the recommended oil, even if it costs a bit more, will help your engine operate more efficiently.
