The 2001 GMC Yukon has a recommended oil type of SAE 5W-30 synthetic that is used in all temperatures. The capacity for the Yukon iS6 quarts with a filter and the drain plug has 18 ft/lbs of torque. Oil is important to use in vehicles because it helps keep the engine clean and running longer. Oil tends to go bad after a while so it is important to change it every so often, it should be changed every 3 months or every 3,000 miles, whichever comes first and the filter should be changed at the same time. The cost for an oil change is around $30 to $40 in labor costs. It is pretty easy to change it and can be done in under 15 minutes.
