What type of oil does the 2005 Pontiac Montana SV6 need?

What kind of oil should I buy for my 2005 Pontiac Montana SV6? I’ve never had to buy oil for a car before so I need to make sure I’m getting the right one.

The 2005
Pontiac Montana SV6
requires 5W-30 grade synthetic motor oil in order to function properly. Your car will require about five quarts of oil in total, but you won’t need that much if you’re just topping off your reservoir before your next oil change.
If you’re still unsure about which oil to get, most auto parts store employees will be happy to help. It’s super common to buy oil for your car, so auto parts stores have lots of information about which type of oil is right for your vehicle.
