Engine OilCaution
If you use the vehicle for racing or other
competitive driving, the engine may use
more oil than it would with normal use.
Low oil levels can damage the engine. For
information on how to add oil, see
Engine Oil028.
Be sure to check the oil level often during
racing or other competitive driving and
keep the level at or near the upper mark
that shows the proper operating range on
the engine oil dipstick. The LT1 and LT4 engines are factory filled
with 0W-40 dexos2 oil. 0W-40 dexos2
engine oil is approved for both track and
street use with the LT1 and LT4 (ZL1 only,
not ZL1 1LE) engines. 15W-50 full synthetic
engine oil may also be used for track use
and is required on the ZL1 1LE, but after
track use must be changed back to 0W-40
dexos2 for street use. See
Capacities and
Specifications 043.
Fuel
Consider using 100 octane unleaded gasoline
if the air temperature is above 30 °C (86 °F)
at a track event. Do not use any fuel with
conditions listed in Prohibited Fuels025.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid should be changed after
every 15 hours of track use. Any
transmission level set or change should be
performed at your dealer.
Manual Transmission Fluid
Manual transmission fluid should be
changed after every 15 hours of track usage.
Tire Pressures
Tire pressure specifications are listed
in psi (kPa). Limit the vehicle weight to a
maximum of the driver and one passenger,
with no additional cargo.

Driving and Operating 25
Recommended Fuel
Use premium unleaded gasoline meeting
ASTM specification D4814 with a posted
octane rating of 93—(R+M)/2.
If unavailable, unleaded gasoline with a
posted octane rating of 91 may be used, but
with reduced performance and fuel
economy. If the octane is less than 91, the
engine could be damaged and the repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. If heavy knocking is heard when
using gasoline rated at 93 octane, the
engine needs service.
Do not use any fuel labeled E85 or FlexFuel.
Do not use gasoline with ethanol levels
greater than 15% by volume.
Prohibited Fuels
Caution
Do not use fuels with any of the
following conditions; doing so may
damage the vehicle and void its
warranty:
.For vehicles that are not FlexFuel, fuel
labeled greater than 15% ethanol by
volume, such as mid-level ethanol
blends (16–50% ethanol), E85,
or FlexFuel.
.Fuel with any amount of methanol,
methylal, ferrocene, and aniline. These
fuels can corrode metal fuel system
parts or damage plastic and rubber
parts.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
.Fuel containing metals such as
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT), which can damage
the emissions control system and
spark plugs.
.Fuel with a posted octane rating of
less than the recommended fuel. Using
this fuel will lower fuel economy and
performance, and may decrease the
life of the emissions catalyst.

sewers, or into streams or bodies of water.
Recycle it by taking it to a place that
collects used oil.
Engine Air Filter Life System
If equipped, this feature provides the engine
air filter’s remaining life and best timing for
a change. The timing to change an engine
air filter depends on driving and
environmental conditions.
When to Change the Engine Air Filter
When the Driver Information Center (DIC)
displays a message to replace the engine air
filter at the next oil change, follow this
timing.
When the DIC displays a message to replace
the engine air filter soon, replace the engine
air filter at the earliest convenience.
The system must be reset after the engine
air filter is changed.
If the DIC displays a message to check the
engine air filter system, see your dealer.
How to Reset the Engine Air Filter Life
System
Reset the system whenever the engine air
filter is replaced so that the system can
calculate the next engine air filter change.
To reset:1. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
2. Select Engine Air Filter Life on the DIC menu. See “Driver Information Center
(DIC)” in the owner manual.
3. Press
pto move to the Reset/Disable
display area. Select Reset then press SEL.
Then press Yes to confirm the reset.
4. 100% Air Filter Life will be displayed when the Engine Air Filter Life System is
successfully reset.
Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
The engine air cleaner/filter is in the engine
compartment on the driver side of the
vehicle.
When to Inspect the Engine Air Cleaner/
Filter
.For intervals on changing and inspecting
the engine air filter, see “Maintenance
Schedule” in the owner’s manual.
.If equipped with Engine Air Filter Life
System, see Engine Air Filter Life System
0 30.
.If driving in very dusty areas, follow the
engine air filter inspecting and changing
intervals, see “Maintenance Schedule” in
the owner’s manual.
How to Inspect/Replace the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
Do not start the engine or have the engine
running with the engine air cleaner/filter
housing open. Before removing the engine
air cleaner/filter, make sure that the engine
air cleaner/filter housing and nearby
components are free of dirt and debris.
Remove the engine air cleaner/filter. Lightly
tap and shake the engine air cleaner/filter
(away from the vehicle), to release loose
dust and dirt. Inspect the engine air cleaner/
filter for damage, and replace if damaged.
Do not clean the engine air cleaner/filter or
components with water or compressed air.
To inspect or replace the engine air cleaner/
filter:

on the vehicle when driving at temperatures
below approximately 10 °C (50 °F) or on ice
or snow covered roads.
{Warning
Driving on wet roads, in heavy rain,
or through standing water with
competition oriented tires may cause
hydroplaning and loss of control. Use
extreme caution and drive slowly on wet
roads.
{Warning
Driving with competition oriented tires on
snow, ice, or cold road surfaces can cause
loss of control or a crash. Competition
oriented tires are summer season tires
and are not intended to be driven on
snow, ice, or road surfaces below 10 °C
(50 °F). Do not drive a vehicle with
competition oriented tires in these
conditions.
Caution
Competition oriented tires have rubber
compounds that lose flexibility and may
develop surface cracks in the tread area
at temperatures below−7 °C (20 °F).
Always store competition oriented tires
indoors and at temperatures above −7 °C
(20 °F) when not in use. If the tires have
been subjected to −7 °C (20 °F) or less, let
them warm up in a heated space to at
least 10 °C (50 °F) for 24 hours or more
before being installed or driving a vehicle
on which they are installed. Do not apply
heat or blow heated air directly on the
tires. Always inspect tires before use.
Summer Tires
High Performance Summer Tires
ZL1, SS with the 1LE package, and LS/LT with
the 1LE package are equipped with high
performance summer tires. These tires have
a special tread and compound that are
optimized for maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased performance
in cold climates, and on ice and snow. It is
recommended that winter tires be installed
on the vehicle if frequent driving at
temperatures below approximately 5 °C
(40 °F) or on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See “Winter Tires” in the owner’s
manual.

34 Vehicle Care
Caution
High performance summer tires have
rubber compounds that lose flexibility
and may develop surface cracks in the
tread area at temperatures below−7 °C
(20 °F). Always store high performance
summer tires indoors and at
temperatures above −7 °C (20 °F) when
not in use. If the tires have been
subjected to −7 °C (20 °F) or less, let them
warm up in a heated space to at least
5 °C (40 °F) for 24 hours or more before
being installed or driving a vehicle on
which they are installed. Do not apply
heat or blow heated air directly on the
tires. Always inspect tires before use. See
“Tire Inspection” in the owner’s manual.
Tire Pressure for High-Speed
Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds, 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher, puts additional
strain on tires. Sustained high-speed
driving causes excessive heat buildup and
can cause sudden tire failure. This could
cause a crash, and you or others could be
killed. Some high-speed rated tires require
inflation pressure adjustment for
high-speed operation. When speed limits
and road conditions allow the vehicle to
be driven at high speeds, make sure the
tires are rated for high-speed operation,
are in excellent condition, and are set to
the correct cold tire inflation pressure for
the vehicle load. Vehicles with tire sizes listed in the High
Speed Operation Inflation Pressures table
require inflation pressure adjustment when
driving the vehicle at speeds of 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher. Set the cold tire
inflation pressure to the corresponding value
in the table for the tire size on the vehicle.
