Chevrolet Colorado Oil Change Interval & Oil Type

When to change the oil on a 2023-2024 (2.7L turbo) Chevrolet Colorado, and what oil it takes.

Oil filterReplace with every oil change
Chevrolet Colorado note: The 2023 redesign is 2.7-turbo-only. As a midsize truck, gear oils (front/rear diff) and the air filter matter most if you off-road; the turbo likes on-time oil.
