The 2003 Chevrolet Silverado requires SAE synthetic 5W-30 oil for its 5.3L 8-cylinder engine. Ensure to use this type of oil in the truck for all temperature conditions, as recommended by GM. When changing the oil, you will need 6 quarts with a new filter and should not exceed 18 pound feet of torque on the drain plug. Any standard canister-style filter will work, but the WIX57060-EA is known for its compatibility and performance on this vehicle, available for around $10 at your nearby auto parts store.
