Oils recommended for your vehicle can be identified by
looking for the “Starburst” symbol. This symbol
indicates that the oil
has been certified by the American
Petroleum Institute
(AH). Do not use any oil which
does not
carry this Starburst symbol.
If you change your own oil,
be sure you use
oil that has
the Starburst symbol on the
front
of the oil container.
If you have your oil changed for you, be sure the oil put
into your engine is American Petroleum Institute
certified
for gasoline engines.

DO HOT USE SAE 2OW-50 OR ANY OTHER GRAOE OIL HOT RECOMMEHDED
As shown in the chart, SAE 1OW-30 is best for your
vehicle. However, you
can use SAE 5W-30 if it's
going
to be colder than GOOF ( 16" C) before your
next
oil change. When it's very cold, you should use
SAE 5W-30. These numbers on an oil container show
its viscosity, or thickness. Do not use other viscosity
oils,
such as SAE 2OW-50.
GM Goodwrench@ oil meets all the requirements for
your vehicle.
If you are in an area where the temperature falls below
-20°F (-29"C), consider using either an SAE 5W-38
synthetic oil or an SAE OW-30 oil. Both will provide
easier
cold starting and better protection for your engine
at extremely low temperatures.
