Cadillac Escalade Engine Oil Capacity - All Generations

The best motor oil for Cadillac Escalade is a common question. In this article, we will discuss the best options for these vehicles and help you make an informed decision on what type of motor oil to use in your vehicle. We’ll also cover how often you should change your oil and provide some tips that can save you money!

How Much Oil Does a Cadillac Escalade Take?

The 6.2L Cadillac Escalade engine has 8 US quarts of 0W-20 oil with a filter. Oil and filter changes should be done every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic lubricants, or 3,000 to 5,000 miles or 6 months if utilizing conventional oil.

Synthetic vs conventional goods: Synthetic oils are more durable and resistant to heat, resulting in greater lubrication between moving parts, a longer time between servicing appointments, and enhanced effectiveness under adverse weather conditions.

Engine oil with a thinner viscosity flows more easily in cold weather, protecting engine components against friction and rust by efficiently lubricating them. Materials and labor for a lube and filter job cost around $130-$140.
