Do I also need to match the OEM oil approval?

Yes. Viscosity is only one part of the oil spec. Match the oil approval listed in your owner's manual or on the bottle before checkout.

How often should I change the oil on a 2017 GMC Acadia Limited?

Castrol's service data indicates a 7,500 mi / 12 mo change interval for the 2017 GMC Acadia Limited. Always follow your owner's manual and oil-life monitor. Severe service may require a shorter interval.
