Engine Oil Scheduled Maintenance
Change engine oil and filter as indicated by the GM
Oil Life System
t
(or every 12 months, whichever
occurs first). Reset the indicator. The system will
show you when to change the oil
-- usually between
3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 10,000 miles (16 000 km)
since your last oil change. Under severe conditions, the
indicator may come on before 3,000 miles (5 000 km).
Never drive your vehicle more than 10,000 miles
(16 000 km) or 12 months without an oil and
filter change.
The system won’t detect dust in the oil. So if you drive
in a dusty area, be sure to change your oil and filter
every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or sooner if the CHANGE
OIL SOON or the CHANGE OIL NOW message
appears. Remember to reset the Oil Life System when
the oil and filter have been changed. See “Oil Life
System” in the Index for information on resetting.
