The 4.2-liter 6-cylinder engine in the 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer is not great on fuel efficiency, but it excels in oil performance. The recommended oil for this engine is a bit over five quarts of SAE 5W-30 full synthetic oil. In a pinch, you can substitute SAE 5W-40 conventional oil for a short time, but it's not ideal for a few important reasons. The numbers in the oil type represent its viscosity at different temperatures. Opt for lower numbers as they are better, like SAE 5W-30. Prolonged use of SAE 5W-40 can wear out your engine prematurely, leading to reduced efficiency and a shorter engine life. It's worth spending a bit more for the best oil recommended by Chevrolet; you'll appreciate it in the long term.
