Asked by GuruX7NGX Nov 24, 2018 at 01:56 AM about the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Z71 Crew Cab 4WD

Question type: General

What kind (brand and type) of oil is best for
my new truck with flex fuel?

2 Answers

Use the factory recommended weight. Any name brand is OK in my experience. Keeping the oil clean is the biggest factor in engine life. I would change it often if you plan on keeping it. 5,000 miles with synthetic is good.

140

2014 5.3 takes 8-8.5 quarts.use dexos compatible synthetic only 0-w20.when in doubt read owners manual.
