386 Vehicle Care
Caution
Failure to use the
recommended engine oil or
equivalent can result in
engine damage not covered
by the vehicle warranty.
Viscosity Grade
For the 6.2L V8 (LT4) engine,
use SAE 0W-40 viscosity
grade engine oil. GM
recommends Mobil 1 engine oil
that shows the dexosR
approved logo.
When selecting an oil of the
appropriate viscosity grade, it
is recommended to select an
oil of the correct specification.
See “Specification” earlier in
this section.
Engine Oil Additives/
Engine Oil Flushes
Do not add anything to the oil.
The recommended oils
meeting the dexos specification are all that is
needed for good performance
and engine protection.
Engine oil system flushes are
not recommended and could
cause engine damage not
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
What to Do with Used Oil
Used engine oil contains
certain elements that can be
unhealthy for your skin and
could even cause cancer. Do
not let used oil stay on your
skin for very long. Clean your
skin and nails with soap and
water, or a good hand cleaner.
Wash or properly dispose of
clothing or rags containing
used engine oil. See the
manufacturer's warnings
about the use and disposal of
oil products.
Used oil can be a threat to the
environment. If you change
your own oil, be sure to drain
all the oil from the filter before
disposal. Never dispose of oilby putting it in the trash or
pouring it on the ground, into
sewers, or into streams or
bodies of water. Recycle it by
taking it to a place that
collects used oil.
Engine Oil Life
System
When to Change
Engine Oil
This vehicle has a computer
system that indicates when to
change the engine oil and
filter. This is based on a
combination of factors which
include engine revolutions,
engine temperature, and miles
driven. Based on driving
conditions, the mileage at
which an oil change is
indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life
system to work properly, the
system must be reset every
time the oil is changed.

Cadillac CT5 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500419) -
2023 - CRC - 5/6/22
Vehicle Care 387
When the system has
calculated that oil life has been
diminished, it indicates that an
oil change is necessary.
A CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message comes on.
Change the oil as soon as
possible within the next
1 000 km (600 mi). It is
possible that, if driving under
the best conditions, the oil life
system might indicate that an
oil change is not necessary for
up to a year. The engine oil
and filter must be changed at
least once a year and at this
time the system must be
reset. Your dealer has trained
service people who will
perform this work and reset
the system. It is also important
to check the oil regularly over
the course of an oil drain
interval and keep it at the
proper level.
If the system is ever reset
accidentally, the oil must be
changed at 5 000 km
(3,000 mi) since the last oilchange. Remember to reset
the oil life system whenever
the oil is changed.
How to Reset the Engine
Oil Life System
Reset the system whenever
the engine oil is changed so
that the system can calculate
the next engine oil change. To
reset the system:
1. Using the DIC buttons, display REMAINING OIL
LIFE on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
(Base Level) 0136 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0139.
2. Press and hold the thumbwheel on the
steering wheel. When the
confirmation message
displays, select YES. The
oil life will change to 100%.
Be careful not to reset the
oil life display accidentally
at any time other than
after the oil is changed. It cannot be reset
accurately until the next oil
change.
The oil life system can also be
reset as follows: 1. Using the DIC buttons, display REMAINING OIL
LIFE on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
(Base Level) 0136 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0139.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal three
times within five seconds.
If the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message is not
on, the system is reset.
The system is reset when the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message is off.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message comes back
on when the vehicle is started,
the engine oil life system has
not been reset. Repeat the
procedure.

fluid as indicated on the
reservoir cap. See Brake Fluid
0404 for brake fluid to use.
How to Check and Add
Fluid
Visually check the brake/
clutch fluid reservoir to make
sure the fluid level is at the
MIN (minimum) line on the side
of the reservoir. The brake/
hydraulic clutch fluid system
should be closed and sealed.
Do not remove the cap to
check the fluid level or to
top-off the fluid level. Remove
the cap only when necessary
to add the proper fluid until
the level reaches the MIN line.
Engine Air Filter Life
System
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
To reset:
1. Place the vehicle in P (Park). 2. Display the Air Filter Life
on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
(Base Level) 0136 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0139.
3. Press
Ton the steering
wheel, or press the trip
odometer reset stem if the
vehicle does not have DIC
controls, to move to the
Reset/Disable display area.
Select Reset, then press
the thumbwheel or press
the reset stem for several
seconds.
4. Press the thumbwheel or the reset stem to confirm
the reset.
