The 2001 Chevrolet Impala has either a 3.4 L V6 or a 3.8 L V6 engine that needS4.5 quarts of oil with a filter. The recommended type that should be used in the car for the best performance iS5W-30 Synthetic for the 3.4 L V6 engine and 10W-30 Synthetic for the 3.8 L V6. It has a torque of 18 ft/lbs for the drain plug on the 3.4 L V6 and 22 ft/lbs for the 3.8 L V6 engine. Oil is important because it will help to keep the engine clean and running. You should change the oil and the oil filter every 7,500 miles or so because it doesn't last forever. The cost of an oil change is anywhere from $30 to $40 in labor costs.
