The 2011 Cadillac CTS3.6 requires SAE 5w-30 synthetic oil, totaling 6 quarts with an oil filter. This oil serves to lubricate internal engine components, while also cleansing them of debris and contaminants to maintain optimal performance. The estimated cost for an oil change on your Cadillac ranges from $50 to $60 for labor and $100 to $110 for parts. It is recommended to have your oil changed every 5,000 miles. Indications that your vehicle may need an oil change while driving include engine noise, engine ticking, issues with transmission shifting, idling vibrations, and decreased fuel efficiency. Additionally, exterior signs such as unusual smoke from the exhaust and oil leaks where the car is parked may also signal the need for an oil change.
