The Silverado comes with several types of engine. Before changing the oil, make sure to purchase the right oil for your engine. The V6 requires 6 quarts of synthetic 5W-30 while the V8 has to have synthetic 0W-30 and needs 8 quarts. Mixing these up can cause premature damage to the engine. The V8 diesel needs 10 quarts of 15W-40 oil to operate properly.
