The 2010 Chevy Silverado requires 5w-30 oil. It's important to change the oil periodically, typically every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Failure to do so can lead to engine issues. Using high-quality oil is crucial for optimal engine performance. Neglecting the oil can result in problems like a strong burning smell, which should be addressed promptly to avoid potential dangers like engine failure or even an explosion. Old or low-quality oil can also cause knocking noises and lead to poor fuel efficiency over time.

    Chevy suggests using SAE 5W-30 motor oil in the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado. If the temperature drops below -20 degrees Fahrenheit, you have the option to switch to SAE 0W-30 oil or SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil to assist with starting up in the cold weather. It's important to note that no other oil viscosity is advised for use.
