★ Top Answer
The 2001 Chevy Silverado's coolant capacity is 16 quarts, and it should be filled with DexCool by Chevrolet or a dealership. It's crucial never to mix different coolant types in your truck as this can harm the cooling system and cause corrosion. If you're unsure about the coolant in your truck, it's safest to top it off with distilled water when low, albeit this may reduce cooling efficiency. Regularly check the coolant level whenever you change your oil to ensure it's adequately filled. Low coolant can result in overheating and permanent damage to your truck.
