The services shown in this schedule up to 100,000 miles (160 000 km) should be repeated after 100,000 miles (160 000 km) at the same intervals for the life of this vehicle. The services shown at 150,000 miles (240 000 km) should be repeated at the same interval after 150,000 miles (240 000 km) for the life of this vehicle.
See Part B: Owner Checks and Services and Part C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections .
† The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the completion of the vehicle's useful life. We, however, urge that all recommended maintenance services be performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded.
* If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC), it also has the GM Oil Life System, a computer system that lets you know when to change the oil and filter. This is based on engine revolutions and engine temperature and not on mileage. Based on driving conditions, the mileage at which an oil change will be indicated can vary considerably. For the oil life system to work properly, you must reset the system every time the oil is changed.
When the system has calculated that oil life has been diminished, it will indicate that an oil change is necessary. A CHANGE OIL SOON message on the Driver Information Center (DIC) will come on. See DIC Warnings and Messages . Change the oil as soon as possible within the next two times you stop for fuel. See Engine Oil . It is possible that, if you are driving under the best conditions, the oil life system may not indicate that an oil change is necessary for over a year. However, the engine oil and filter must be changed at least once a year and at this time the system must be reset. It is also important to check the oil regularly and keep it at the proper level.
If the system is ever reset accidentally, you must change your oil at 3,000 miles (5 000 km) since your last oil change. Remember to reset the oil life system whenever the oil is changed. See Engine Oil Life System for information on resetting the system.
+ A good time to check the brakes is during tire rotation. See Brake System Inspection .
