2004 CADILLAC SRX oil viscosity

SAE 5W-30
As shown in the viscosity chart, SAE 5W-30 is
best for your vehicle. However, you can use
SAE 10W-30 if it is going to be 0°F (–18°C)
or above.
These numbers on an oil container show its
viscosity, or thickness. Do not use other viscosity
oils such as SAE 20W-50.
Oils meeting these
requirements should also
have the starburst
symbol on the container.
This symbol indicates
that the oil has been
certied by the American
Petroleum Institute (API).You should look for this on the oil container, and use
onlythose oils that are identied as meeting GM
Standard GM4718M and have the starburst symbol on
the front of the oil container.
Your vehicle’s engine is lled at the factory with a
Mobil 1
®synthetic oil, which meets all requirements for
your vehicle.
Substitute Engine Oil:when adding oil to maintain
engine oil level, oil meeting GM Standard GM4718M
may not be available. You can add substitute oil
designated SAE 5W-30 with the starburst symbol
at all temperatures. If temperatures are above 0°F
(–18°C), you may substitute SAE 10W-30 with
the starburst symbol. Substitute oil not meeting
GM Standard GM4718M should not be used for an
oil change.
Engine Oil Additives
Do not add anything to your oil. The recommended
oils with the starburst symbol that meet GM
Standard GM4718M are all you will need for good
performance and engine protection.

Usage Fluid/Lubricant
Engine OilThe engine requires a special
engine oil meeting GM
Standard GM4718M. Oils meeting
this standard may be identied as
synthetic, and should also be
identied with the American
Petroleum Institute Certied for
Gasoline Engines starburst symbol.
However, not all synthetic API oils
with the starburst symbol will meet
this GM standard. You should look
for and use only an oil that meets
GM Standard GM4718M. GM
Goodwrench oil meets all the
requirements for your vehicle. For
