GMC Terrain Oil Type

If you love DIY car maintenance in your Gas City garage or driveway, you’ll need to know the right GMC Terrain oil type to give you optimal results. That way, your investment lasts as long as possible to take care of you and your family. The GMC Terrain oil that goes in the engine depends on the size of the engine. Discover more information about the GMC Terrain oil type with this handy guide from the service team at Greg Hubler Buick GMC!

What is the Best GMC Terrain Oil Type?

GMC recommends ACDelco dexos1full synthetic as the best GMC Terrain oil. When looking to purchase the right grade of oil, the recommended GMC Terrain oil type depends on the size of the engine and if you want extra protection during frigid winter weather.

• If you have the LYX 1.5L turbo engine, install SAE 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil in your GMC Terrain.
• With the LTG 2.0L turbo engine, use SAE 5W-30 full synthetic engine oil.
• Winter temperatures commonly fall below 20°F in IN. For improved results in the winter months, we suggest going with SAE 0W-30 full synthetic oil.

Your owner’s manual will show you what GMC Terrain oil the manufacturer recommends for your exact model. If you don’t have time to perform an oil change yourself, bring your SUV to our service center in Marion. We’ll install the correct GMC Terrain oil type every time.

Synthetic vs. Conventional: Choices for Your GMC Terrain Oil

Conventional (regular) oil can go in your GMC Terrain. However, regular oil is not the best choice. Our service team highly recommends full synthetic oil because it outperforms conventional oil in several key areas.

• Better for the engine
• Lasts longer
• Keeps the engine cleaner
• Improves fuel efficiency
• Longer time between oil changes

Full synthetic GMC Terrain oil costs more when you pay for it. However, you save money for as long as you own your SUV because of fewer oil changes.

• Receive fresh oil and a GMC Terrain oil filter every 3,000 to 5,000 miles with conventional oil.
• Full synthetic oil changes occur every 7,500 miles for a GMC Terrain.

Genuine GMC parts, including dexos1 oil and a GMC Terrain oil filter, provide the best fit for your GMC SUV. Dexos1 oil is formulated specifically for GMC engines. ACDelco parts, like the correct GMC Terrain oil filter, enhance every drive in Hartford City better than aftermarket parts that are made to fit several vehicles.
