Oil capacity by engine
| Engine | Oil Type (viscosity) | Capacity w/ Filter | Capacity w/o Filter | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4.8 A — 4.8L Eng | API - SAE 5W-30 | 6.00 QTS. | — | Use oil that meets GM Standard GM6094M. For areas of extreme cold, where temperatures fall below -20Deg.F (-29Deg.C), it is recommended a SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil or a SAE 10W-30 oil. Both will provide easier cold starting and better protection for your engine at extremely low temperatures. |
| 6.0 G — 6.0L Eng | API - SAE 5W-30 | 6.00 QTS. | — | Use oil that meets GM Standard GM6094M. For areas of extreme cold, where temperatures fall below -20Deg.F (-29Deg.C), it is recommended a SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil or a SAE 10W-30 oil. Both will provide easier cold starting and better protection for your engine at extremely low temperatures. |
| 6.6 6 — 6.6L Eng | API - SAE 15W-40 | 10.00 QTS. | 9.20 QTS. | Use ONLY engine oil that have designation: CJ-4. Designation CJ-4 can appear either alone or in combination with other API designations such as API - CJ-4/SL. Use SAE 10W-30 if temperatures stay above 0Deg.F (-18Deg.C) before your next oil change. When it is very cold, Below 0Deg.F (-18Deg.C), you should use SAE 5W-30 to improve cold starting and prevent engine damage. DO NOT use other viscosity oils such as SAE 10W-40 or SAE 20W-50. |
| 6.6 L — 6.6L Eng | API - SAE 15W-40 | 10.00 QTS. | 9.20 QTS. | Use ONLY engine oil that have designation: CJ-4.
