Literally just about any synthetic oil in the weight specified by your manual will do. Get the cheapest you can find napa has their house brand on sale sometimes. the last batch of oil I got for my 2019 silverado with the 5.3 was truegard oil. It came in a 5 gallon pail , Iv never heard of it...

Its good oil but I dont trust an oil that refuses to get officially licensed by a manufacturer.

I guess im glad my dealer does just what I ask them to do if its at the mileage and needs done for warranty i just tell them to do it. I do get what you mean by the upsell though. My personal preference im not a fan of aftermarket filters. Its not the quality of them its how big of a pain in the...

Ill go with myth on this one.

2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.8 liter. Ac delco 5w30 full synthetic with an AC delco pf46e filter.

It gets started and moved around and short trips to town a lot and idles to keep the battery charged up.

With winter approaching I have began doing oil changes for the winter. The new cars go to the dealer but I have an old Silverado with the 4.8 that I bought new in the fall of 99. Always done once every 6 months of AC Delco full synthetic in it. The past 5 years it hasn’t gotten ran much maybe...

My 2000 silverado just recently turned over 257,000 miles. My dad bought the truck new back in the fall of 99 and I bought it from him in 2011. The truck has been serviced at the local Chevy dealer since it was new. I have every receipt for the oil changes that he had done and that I have had...

Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask on but ill give it a whirl. I have a 19 Silverado 1500LD that I am in the process of mounting a small radio console in for a couple two way radios. If I were to throw some self tapping screws into transmission hump to secure the console is there much...

It ain’t cheap. $20 the old ones were around $12ish. Good thing I have one for this year already I bought in the fall. I was going to buy another one as I like to have a spare laying around the shop as a just in case item. For that price idk may find another brand

Was just in my local tractor supply and was getting oil and a filter for the upcoming mower season. I have always used the kohler 5205002s filter that have been the champ labs e-core design ever since I can remember. Well they changed it seems, they have the traditional steel tube in them now...

My brother had one of these for a silverado do the same thing last year and he lost his engine due to no oil, not a real big oil checker mind you but anyway. Wix paid to have his engine replaced but it was almost 2 months of him going between wix and gm to get them to pay the dealership. That’s...

I recently had my silverado serviced at the dealer after using Mobil 1 and ac delco filter for the past couple years. I notice my oil pressure isn’t running as low at hot idle after towing in the summer. Not sure what kind they used but I can’t imagine it would be anything other then bulk oil...

Coal black with a few little sludgy deposits not bad though. Was almost down to the low point on the dipstick but not quite.

Just making sure I didn’t miss something with Briggs and Stratton, 😂
