2007 CHEVROLET KODIAK reset

To reset the Engine Oil Life System, do the
following:
1. Turn the ignition key to RUN with the
engine off.
2. Fully apply and hold the brake pedal while
you fully press and release the accelerator
pedal, pausing slightly at each press and each
release, three times within five seconds.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the change engine oil light comes back on when
you start your vehicle, the Engine Oil Life
System has not reset. Repeat the procedure.
Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
The engine air
cleaner/filter is located
in the center of the
engine compartment.
When to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
If your vehicle has an
air cleaner/filter change
indicator, inspect the
indicator at every
oil change and replace
the filter when the
indicator tells you to.
For vehicles without a change indicator, inspect
the air cleaner/filter at every oil change and
replace the filter at the first oil change after
25,000 miles (40 000 km).
How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
Locate the filter change indicator. When the
change indicator turns black or is in the red/orange
change area, replace the filter and reset the
indicator.

Power Steering Fluid
SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 363to
determine when to check your power steering fluid.
How To Check Power Steering Fluid
Check your power steering fluid only when the
engine is warm. If the engine is not warm, you
probably will not get an accurate reading.
If the fluid level is between the MIN (Minimum) and
MAX (Maximum) marks, you have enough. If you
need fluid, add only enough of the proper fluid to
bring it in between the MIN and MAX marks.
If your power steering fluid level is low, this can
cause the brake or service brakes soon warning
lights to come on. In addition, the steering
effort and emergency brake distance could
increase.If either light remains on after you have added
power steering fluid to the proper level, then shut
off the engine for 10 seconds. This should
reset the brake warning lights. If one or both lights
stay on, see “Hydraulic Brake System Warning
Lights” underBrake System Warning Light
on page 169for more information.
What to Use
To determine what kind of fluid to use, see
Part C: Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on
page 397.
Notice:When adding power steering uid or
making a complete uid change, always
use the proper uid. Failure to use the proper
uid can cause leaks and damage hoses
and seals.

When It Is Time for New Tires
Replace your tires when the tread depth is down
to 1/8 of an inch (3.2 mm) for the front tires,
or 1/16 of an inch (1.6 mm) for a rear tire. Also,
you need a new tire if:
•You can see cord or fabric showing through
the tire’s rubber.
•The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut or
snagged deep enough to show cord or fabric.
•The tire has a bump, bulge or split.
•The tire has a puncture, cut or other damage
that cannot be repaired well because of the
size or location of the damage.
{CAUTION:
Mixing tires could cause you to lose
control while driving. If you mix tires of
different types — like radial and
bias-belted tires — the vehicle may not
handle properly, and you could have a
crash. Be sure to use the same type of
tires all around.When you replace tires, make sure they are the
same size, load range, speed rating and
construction type (bias, bias-belted or radial) as
your original tires.
If your vehicle has four-wheel drive, the axle
differentials, propshafts and transfer case may be
damaged if tires of different sizes, brands or
tread types are installed on the front and rear
axles. That damage would not be covered under
your warranty.
Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were aligned at
the factory to give you the longest tire life and
best overall performance.
Proper front wheel alignment must be maintained
in order to ensure efficient steering, good
directional stability, and prevent abnormal tire
wear. If you notice unusual tire wear or your
vehicle is pulling one way or the other, the
alignment may need to be reset. If you notice your
vehicle vibrating when driving on a smooth
road, your wheels may need to be balanced.
