The 2012 Chevrolet Traverse using the 3.6L 6-cylinder engine, is going to need 6 quarts of oil, and is going to use A5W-30 viscosity. This is a good middle of the road choice, but if You live where it's often more than 20 below zero, go with 0W-20, and if You live where it almost never gets below 20 degrees, try using 10W-40; this will give You a better performance curve in Your truck. A compatible oil filter for Your vehicle is the WIX10255-EA, which runs about $10 at most car part stores. Be careful not to over-torque Your drain plug nut; 18 pound feet is the max You should tighten it down.
