The 2005 Chevy Cavalier requires SAE 5w-30 fully synthetic motor oil with a capacity of 5 US quarts. This particular type of oil can be found at various retail stores, automotive shops, and online retailers at prices ranging from as low as $2.13 to around $14.32 per bottle. If you opt to have a professional perform the oil change, expect to pay between $58 and $134 for labor in addition to the cost of the oil. It is recommended to also purchase a funnel for $1 to $3 to assist in preventing spills during the oil change process. It is advised to have the oil changed every 10,000 miles or annually, whichever comes first.
According to the manual for my 2005 Cavalier with a 2.2 engine, it requires 4 quarts of oil.
In the 2005 Chevy Cavalier, you'll need 5 quarts of oil to fill it up.
