The recommended oil type for a 2008 Chevy Malibu depends on the engine it has. There were several engine options available that year. To know for sure, you need to
check your owner's manual. It will specify the exact type and viscosity (like 5W-30 or 10W-30) of oil recommended for your specific Malibu engine.
However, generally, 2008 Chevy Malibu engines often used 5W-30 oil. But again, consult your owner's manual to be absolutely certain. Using the incorrect oil can damage your engine.
