Staying up to date on your Chevrolet’s maintenance is the best way to preserve its resale value and longevity on Staten Island roads. That goes double for oil changes. Dirty oil can contain particulate that can damage engine parts. Furthermore, low oil fluid levels can bring all your vehicle’s machinery to a grinding stop – literally.
Does your Chevy Silverado 1500 need oil? Not just any motor oil will do. Find out what’s the best oil for a Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup, as well as the optimal oil filter for a Chevy Silverado 1500, with the service experts at Advantage Chevrolet below!
Your ideal Chevy Silverado 1500 oil type all depends on the type of engine you have underneath the hood. Some Silverado 1500 trucks house a gas engine and others a diesel engine. First and foremost, you’ll want to consult your Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s owner’s manual. However, the general rule of thumb dictates that if you use your Silverado 1500 pickup as an everyday commuter around Bronx, conventional oil will work fine. On the other hand, if you regularly tow or max out your payload capacity during long hauls across Queens, you’ll want to opt for synthetic oil.
Viscosity is the top rating to take into account when deciding the best oil for your Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Many new Silverados work great with a synthetic oil rated 0W-20. Pre-owned Silverado 1500s perform better with 10W-30 or 5W-30 oil. Again, your owner’s manual will tell you how many quarts you’ll need if you’re conducting your own oil change.
We can’t stress enough that you’ll want to replace your oil filter when you’re changing your Chevy Silverado 1500’s oil. An oil filter stops debris before it comes into contact with your oil. Ideally, you’ll want an oil filter that properly fits your Silverado 1500. Fortunately, our Advantage Chevrolet Parts Store houses the OEM components you need for your Chevrolet Silverado. So you can rest assured that you’re investing in an oil filter that’s compatible with your current year or pre-owned Chevy Silverado 1500 truck.
