The 2005 Chevy Silverado requires 4.5 quarts of oil for optimal performance. Using high-quality oil is essential for maintaining a smooth-running engine. It's inevitable that there will be oil-related issues at some point. Low-quality oil can lead to engine failure, manifested by a distinct burning odor. This should be promptly investigated to prevent potential damage like engine combustion. Engine knocking sounds and reduced gas efficiency may occur. Regular oil changes are necessary, typically recommended every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Neglecting to change the oil can result in engine complications.

I use a synthetic blend of 6 quarts for my truck that is nearly 20 years old. Adding 1 quart of Duralube has made a significant difference, as now my truck's engine sounds as smooth as a kitten.
