2007 Chevrolet Malibu Oil Capacity
The 2007 Chevrolet Malibu oil capacity depends on the engine: the L61 takes 5.0 qt, while the LZ9 takes 4.0 qt. Both engines use 5W-30 oil. Match the engine code to your vehicle before relying on a capacity figure; the listed amount is not the same for every Malibu engine.
Read each entry as the specified engine, oil quantity, and oil viscosity. The figures here distinguish the L61 from the LZ9, so do not apply one engine's capacity to the other. These facts cover the 2007 model year only and do not establish specifications for other years or trims.
If you cannot confirm whether your Malibu has the L61 or LZ9, or need a figure not listed here, check the vehicle's door jamb or owner's manual. Use those sources to confirm the correct specification for your vehicle.
