The 2016 GMC Terrain witH3.6l engine has an oil capacity of 6 quarts while the 2.4l can hold 5 quarts. In both cases, it is recommended to use SAE 5w-30 synthetic. 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 Terrain is around $140 for parts and labor. You should get an oil change every 7,500 miles or 6 months. You will know that it is time for an oil change if You notice increased engine noise, shaking while idling, excess exhaust, or an oil smell inside the vehicle.
