2005 Chevrolet Equinox Oil Capacity

The 2005 Chevrolet Equinox with the LNJ engine has an oil capacity of 4.5 qt and uses 5W-30 oil. These specifications identify both the engine and the oil information listed for this model year; the capacity is not a general figure for every Equinox.

Read the capacity as the listed amount of engine oil for the LNJ configuration. Engine type and model year can affect oil specifications, so do not assume this figure applies to another engine or year. The facts provided here identify only the LNJ engine and do not list any other engine or trim variations.

If your vehicle’s engine or configuration is not confirmed as LNJ, check the oil information on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual before adding oil. Use the owner’s manual to confirm the specified oil and capacity for your vehicle.
