If you own a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 4.3 L V6 engine, it requires 6 quarts of SAE 5W-30 oil. On the other hand, the 5.3 L V8 and 6.2 L V8 engines need 8 quarts of 0W-20 oil, including the new filter. It is recommended to use full synthetic oil for all engine types due to its superior additives that provide improved engine protection and cleaning. Additionally, using full synthetic oil can result in better fuel efficiency and oil longevity, outweighing the slightly higher initial cost compared to conventional oil.
