If your vehicle has an Oil Life
Indicator, the indicator will show
you when to change the oil and
filter. Under severe conditions
the indicator may come on
before 10 000 km/6,000 mi. The
indicator won't detect dust in the
oil, so if you drive in a dusty
area you may have to change
the oil and filter sooner than
every 10 000 km/6,000 mi.
Note: All vehicles with
rear-wheel drive —change
driveline axle oil every
30 000 km/19,000 mi if vehicle is
used for towing purposes.
* Footnote: Under extreme
driving conditions listed above, it
may be necessary to replace
your spark plugs at more
frequent intervals. For further
assistance in determining the
most suitable service
maintenance intervals for your
vehicle, please contact your
authorized GM Dealer.
