★ Top Answer
The 2012 Chevy 1500 5.3 requires SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil with a capacity of 6 quarts. Oil is essential for keeping your engine's internal components lubricated while also removing dirt, sludge, and impurities to ensure your vehicle operates smoothly. The estimated cost for an oil change for your Chevy falls between $40 and $50 for labor and $100 to $110 for parts. It is recommended to schedule an oil change every 150,000 miles. Warning signs that indicate the need for an oil change include engine ticking noises, transmission problems, idling vibrations, exhaust smoke, decreased fuel efficiency, or the illumination of the Check Engine or Oil Change indicator lights.
