Engine Oil Scheduled Maintenance
Change engine oil and filter as indicated by the 
GM Oil Life System
t (or every 12 months,
whichever occurs first). Reset the system. The system
will show you when to change the oil 
--
 usually between
3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 10,000 miles (16 000 km)
since your last oil change. Under severe conditions, the
indicator may come on before 3,000 miles (5 000 km).
Never drive your vehicle more than 10,000 miles 
(16 000 km) or 12 months without an oil and 
filter change.
The system won’t detect dust in the oil. So if you 
drive in a dusty area, be sure to change your oil and
filter every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or sooner if the 
OIL CHANGE light appears. Remember to reset the 
Oil Life System when the oil and filter have been
changed. See “Oil Life System” in the Index for
information on resetting.
