The oil type and capacity for a 2011 Chevrolet Malibu is 5w-30 and 5.5 quarts. Using high-quality oil is essential for the engine's performance. Issues can arise from subpar oil, such as a strong burning smell indicating a problem. This should be addressed promptly to avoid potential dangers like engine damage or even an explosion. Poor quality oil can lead to engine failure, evidenced by knocking noises and reduced gas mileage. It's important to change your oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine issues down the road.
