The 2001 Chevrolet Camaro uses SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil. It has a capacity of 5.5 quarts. Oil keeps the internal parts of Your car's engine cool and lubricated and it also keeps the moving parts from grinding against each other thereby reducing wear and damage. The cost of an oil change for Your Camaro is between $40 and $50 for labor and between $90 and $100 for parts. You should get an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or 6 months. You will know that it is time for an oil change if You notice increased engine noise, transmission shifting issues, shaking while idling, excess exhaust, or an oil smell inside the vehicle.
