Chevrolet Camaro SS oil type and capacity
For the checked 2024 SS 6.2L LT1, GM specifies 0W-40 dexosR and approximately 10.0 US quarts (9.5 L) with the filter. The old answer on this page gave 9.5 quarts, which is the archive's without-filter figure. The 2015 SS uses a different engine and capacity; oil approval also changes across later years.
Checked year and engine examples
Amounts below are approximate oil-change capacities with a new filter, not dry-engine or without-filter amounts. Confirm the engine, your exact year, oil cap and owner manual; add oil gradually and check the dipstick after filling. These examples do not establish a single specification for every intervening year or for a ZL1 LT4.

2023–2024 archive oil approval conflict
The hosted 2023 and 2024 SS Fluids tables still show 0W-40 dexos2 and a dexos1 street-use alternative. GM's 2023 and 2024 owner manuals specify 0W-40 dexosR for the LT1. Use the matching GM owner manual and verify the bottle's GM approval; do not treat the older archive text or viscosity alone as proof of approval. Track driving has separate instructions in GM's manuals.
