that the vehicle has right now, and
will change as driving conditions change. The Average Fuel Economy
can be reset by pressing
Vand
selecting yes or no while this display
is active.
Fuel Range : Shows the approximate
distance the vehicle can be driven
without refueling. LOW will be
displayed when the vehicle is low on
fuel. The fuel range estimate is based
on an average of the vehicle's fuel
economy over recent driving history
and the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank.
Oil Life : Shows an estimate of the
oil's remaining useful life.
If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is
displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message
will appear on the display. The oil
should be changed as soon as
possible. See Engine Oil0312. In
addition to the engine oil life system
monitoring the oil life, additional
maintenance is recommended. See
Maintenance Schedule 0380. The Oil Life display must be reset
after each oil change. It will not reset
itself. Do not reset the Oil Life display
accidentally at any time other than
when the oil has just been changed.
It cannot be reset accurately until the
next oil change. See
Engine Oil Life
System 0314.
Air Filter Life : If equipped, Shows an
estimate of the engine air filter’s
remaining useful life and the state of
the system. Engine Air Filter Life 95%
means 95% of the current air filter life
remains. Messages will display based
on the engine air filter life and the
state of the system. When the
REPLACE AT NEXT OIL CHANGE
message displays, the engine air filter
should be replaced at the time of the
next oil change. When the REPLACE
SOON message displays, the engine air
filter should be replaced at the earliest
convenience.
The Air Filter Life display must be
reset after the engine air filter
replacement. To reset, see Engine Air
Filter Life System 0315.

208 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Engine Oil
Check the oil level often during track
events and competitive driving and
keep the oil level at or near the
upper mark.
Fuel
Use premium unleaded gasoline with
a posted octane rating of 93 at a track
event. Unleaded gasoline with a
posted octane rating of 91 may be
used, but performance will be
degraded.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Have the transmission fluid set to the
track specific oil level prior to track
usage. Transmission fluid should be
changed after every 15 hours of track
usage. Any transmission level set or
change should be performed at your
dealer.
Brakes
Brake cooling can be improved if the
front brake disc splash shield and
front tire deflector are removed.
Removing the shield will require that
the suspension bushings and wheelspeed wires visible to the brake disc
be protected with insulated thermal
wrapping.
Caution
Removing the splash shield can
degrade wet braking performance,
as well as introduce brake pedal
pulsation, due to brake disc
exposure to road debris. Only
remove the front brake disc splash
shield and front tire deflector when
driving in track events.
Brake Pad Wear Sensors
(V-Series Only)
If equipped, the brake pad wear
sensors need to be removed from the
brake calipers prior to any track or
racing event. The original sensors can
be reinstalled if significant brake pad
wear is not observed. The sensor
should not extend beyond the brake
pad surface at the rotor contact.
If this condition is observed, the brake
pad life system needs to be disabled
until a new set of brake pads and
sensors are installed and the system
reset. Brake Fluid
.Before racing, replace existing brake
fluid with a qualified racing brake
fluid from a sealed container. Brake
fluid with a dry boiling point
>279 °C (534 °F) is qualified.
If racing brake fluid is used, replace
it with GM approved brake fluid
before driving on public roads. See
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants
0
391.
.Do not use silicone-based fluids.
If racing brake fluid is in the vehicle
and the age of the brake fluid is over a
month old or unknown, replace the
brake fluid between racing/closed
track driving.
Caution
Failure to change the brake fluid
and transfer case fluid after any
performance or race track driving
could result in damage not covered
by the vehicle warranty. Have the
brake fluid and transfer case fluid
changed by your dealer after any (Continued)
