The 2011 Chevrolet Equinox requires 5 quarts of 5w-30 oil for optimum performance. It is crucial to change your oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine issues. High-quality oil is necessary for a smooth-running engine. Neglecting oil changes can lead to problems such as a burning smell and engine failure, ultimately affecting gas mileage and causing knocking noises. It is important to address any oil-related concerns promptly to avoid potential car damage.

In order to maintain optimal performance, the 2011 Chevy Equinox's engine needs to use dexos-approved oil or a similar 5W-30 viscosity grade oil. Look for the dexos certification mark on oils that meet this requirement. The 2.4L engine requires 5 US quarts (4.7 liters) of oil, while the 3.0L engine needs 6 US quarts (5.7 liters).

Mara, you're mistaken. It is advised to use DEXOS, as it is stated that you can utilize 5W-30 as long as it is fully synthetic.
