See Engine Compartment Overview
on page 5-10 for the location of
the engine oil fill cap.
Add enough oil to put the level
somewhere in the proper operating
range in the cross-hatched area.
Push the dipstick all the way back in
when you are through.
What Kind of Engine Oil to Use
Look for three things:
• GM6094M
Use only an oil that meets GM
Standard GM6094M.
• SAE 5W-30
SAE 5W-30 is best for the
vehicle. These numbers on an oil
container show its viscosity, or
thickness. Do not use other
viscosity oils such as
SAE 20W-50.
• American Petroleum Institute
(API) starburst symbol
Oils meeting these requirements
should have the starburst
symbol on the container. This
symbol indicates that the oil has
been certified by the American
Petroleum Institute (API).
