Choosing the right oil for your Bryan GMC vehicle is important for ensuring your new car, truck, or SUV functions properly throughout your time as the owner. Preserving your car’s longevity also secures a much higher return on your investment, as any future buyer is willing to pay more for a vehicle that’s been well-maintained. In this article, we’ll highlight some of the most common options for GMC Acadia oil type, GMC Terrain oil type, and your GMC Sierra oil type.

 

 

2023 GMC Acadia Oil Type

The Acadia is a versatile yet efficient midsize SUV manufactured by GMC. The manufacturer recommendations per the Acadia owner’s manual are as follows:

College Station Acadia owners should use dexos®-approved 5W-30 viscosity grade oil. This particular formulation is GM-developed, and guarantees optimized engine performance, protection against buildup, and maximum cleanliness. Proper viscosity and lubrication are needed across a wide range of temperatures, and this oil delivers reliable performance across multiple driving conditions.

2023 GMC Sierra Oil Type

The 2023 GMC Sierra oil type is part of what helps this truck deliver dependable performance over and over. When you call on your Sierra to handle demanding loads, you should only use the following formulations:

Only use dexos®-approved 0W-20 or 5W-30 viscosity grade oil for the 2023 GMC Sierra, depending on the specific engine variant. These oils specifically provide maximum efficiency for Franklin Sierra owners, guaranteeing peak performance when you need it most.

2023 GMC Terrain Oil Type

The mid-sized Terrain is feature-rich and compact but still delivers plenty of space and ample comfort. Your recommended GMC Terrain oil type includes:

Use only dexos®-approved 0W-20 or 5W-30 viscosity grade oil for the 2023 GMC Terrain, depending on the engine variant. Both formulations meet the minimum requirements outlined in the owner’s manual by GM.

Keep in mind that the specific blend used may change slightly depending on the trim level or specific engine if there’s an upgrade or downgrade involved. This is why it’s critical that you refer to your owner’s manual specific to your vehicle rather than using a generalized recommendation you obtained from a non-GM-backed source.
