What is the GMC Acadia’s oil type?

If I have a GMC Acadia, what type of oil do I need? I want to teach my kid how to change the oil in our new car, but I’m not sure which kind to pick up.

To change the oil in your new
GMC Acadia
, you’ll need six quarts of 5W-30 Full Synthetic Motor Oil.
If you’re going to be driving in temperatures below -20F, using SAE 0W-30 may be a good bet. Always reference your owner’s manual for recommendations from the manufacturer.
Once you and your kid have successfully changed the oil in your new Acadia, why not take a minute to update your car insurance? With the Jerry
super app
, you’ll have access to affordable quotes from top providers in no time at all!
