★ Top Answer
The 2001 Chevy Impala comes with either a 3.4 L V6 or a 3.8 L V6 motor that requires 4.5 quarts of oil, including the filter. For optimal performance, it's recommended to use 5W-30 Synthetic oil for the 3.4 L V6 and 10W-30 Synthetic oil for the 3.8 L V6. The drain plug torque is 18 ft/lbs for the 3.4 L V6 and 22 ft/lbs for the 3.8 L V6. It's essential to maintain proper oil levels to keep the engine clean and running smoothly. Oil and filter changes should be done every 7,500 miles to ensure engine longevity, with oil change costs typically ranging from $30 to $40 for labor.
