The 2006 Chevy Impala offers three engine choices: a 3.5L V6, a 3.9L V6, and a 5.3L V8, each with a different oil capacity. The V6 models require 4 US quarts, while the V8 model requires 6 US quarts. Regardless of the engine type, it is important to use fully synthetic 5W-30 motor oil. To prevent damage, oil changes should be performed every 10,000 miles or 12 months. The vehicle is equipped with sensors that will alert you when an oil change is due.
In 2006, the Chevrolet Impala can be equipped with different engines. The base engine, available in both non-flex fuel and Flex fuel versions, is a 3.5L V6 that requires 4 quarts of 5W30 synthetic oil. Another option is the 3.9L V6, which also needs 4 quarts of 5W30 oil. For those looking for more power, the 5.3L V8 engine, the largest available for the 2006 Impala, has a capacity of 6 quarts and Chevy suggests using 5W30 synthetic oil.
