2011 Camaro SS Oil Preference - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Grim Reaper SS · 06-27-2011, 12:03 AM

I just recently bought my Camaro SS and I was wondering what oil people were using and prefer. I prefer not to use Mobil 1 Synthetic. I was always wondering when every did their first oil change.

Hicompression · 06-27-2011, 03:25 AM

I use Pennzoil Platinum 5W-30 exclusively.

techy96z · 06-27-2011, 06:51 AM

Im thinking if Mobile1 is what comes in it from factory then that is what I will continue to use.

blackjackcamaro · 06-27-2011, 08:06 AM

Yeah, I'm kinda curious to now as to what the dealership actually uses in the oil change. I might do the Royal Purple... curious what you guys thought of that oil. And, if we did it ourselves, how do we go about it so that we don't negate the warranty.
