The 2013 Chevrolet Malibu has three different versions, but all share the same oil capacity and recommended oil types. The 2 L, 2.4 L, and 2.5 L engines can hold up to 5 quarts of oil each. Chevrolet suggests using synthetic SAE 5W-30 oil for optimal performance, efficiency, and longevity across all engine types. They advise changing the oil every 7,500 miles with synthetic oil and every 3,500 to 5,000 miles with conventional oil. Oil changes typically range from $100 to $150, depending on where you live. You can purchase the recommended oils at Walmart or Autozone and handle the oil change yourself to save money.
