The 2017 GMC Yukon takeS8 quarts of oil. Having high quality oil is key for the engine to run smoothly. You will run into issues with the oil at some point. A common problem is an awful burning odor. This needs to be viewed closely as soon as possible or the car might explode. Bad oil can cause the engine to fail. Knocking noise may show up from the engine. You could experience poor gas mileage. Your oil needs to be changed out someday. Every 5,000 to 10,000 miles or so is a good rule of thumb. If You don't replace it, there will be problems with the engine.

The Yukon comes with two different engines, one is a 5.3L V8 and the other is a 6.2 L V8. The 6.2 is only available with the Denali trim package. Both engines use the same type and amount of oil, 8 quarts of full synthetic 0W-20. Choosing the right oil and filling the vehicle with the correct amount will prevent premature wear on the engine. If the oil light comes on, promptly check the level to prevent overheating and damage to the engine.
