Maintenance Schedule
Introduction
Important: Keep engine oil at the proper level and
change as recommended.
Have you purchased the GM Protection Plan? The Plan
supplements your new vehicle warranties. See your
Warranty and Owner Assistance booklet or your
dealer/retailer for details.
Maintenance Requirements
Maintenance intervals, checks, inspections and
recommended fluids and lubricants as prescribed in this
manual are necessary to keep your vehicle in good
working condition. Any damage caused by failure to
follow scheduled maintenance may not be covered by
warranty.
Your Vehicle and the Environment
Proper vehicle maintenance not only helps to keep your
vehicle in good working condition, but also helps the
environment. Improper vehicle maintenance can even
affect the quality of the air we breathe. Improper fluid
levels or the wrong tire inflation can increase the level of
emissions from your vehicle. To help protect our
environment, and to keep your vehicle in good condition,
be sure to maintain your vehicle properly.

Part A: Scheduled Maintenance
Services
In this part are scheduled maintenance services which
are to be performed at the mileage intervals specified.
Using the Maintenance Schedule
We want to help keep your vehicle in good working
condition. But we do not know exactly how you will drive
it. You might drive very short distances only a few times
a week. Or you might drive long distances all the
time in very hot, dusty weather. You might use your
vehicle in making deliveries or in many other ways.
Because of all the different ways people use their
vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You might need
more frequent checks and replacements. So please read
the following and note how you drive. If you have any
questions on how to keep your vehicle in good condition,
see your dealer/retailer.
This part tells you the maintenance services you should
have done and when to schedule them.
When you go to your dealer/retailer for your service
needs, you will know that trained and supported service
people will perform the work using genuine parts.The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed in
Part C. Make sure whoever services your vehicle uses
these. All parts should be replaced and all necessary
repairs done before you or anyone else drives the
vehicle.
This schedule is for vehicles that:
•carry passengers and cargo within recommended
limits. You will find limits on your vehicle’s
Certification or Tire Information label. SeeLoading
Your Vehicle on page 4-21.
•are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal
driving limits.
•use the recommended fuel. SeeGasoline Octane
on page 5-7for gasoline engine vehicles orWhat
Fuel to Use on page 5-9for diesel engine vehicles.
Scheduled Maintenance
Supplements
If your vehicle has a Caterpillar®diesel engine, your
owner manual is supplemented by the Caterpillar®
Diesel Engine Operation & Maintenance Manual. If your
vehicle has an Allison Transmission®, your owner
manual is supplemented by an Allison Transmission®
Operator’s Manual. Always refer to these manuals
for related maintenance services.
6-4

Scheduled Maintenance
The services shown in this schedule up to 100,000 miles
(166 000 km) should be repeated after 100,000 miles
(166 000 km) at the same intervals for the life of
this vehicle. The services shown after 100,000 miles
(166 000 km) should be repeated at the same miles (km)
after those intervals for the life of this vehicle.
Gasoline engine vehicles and some DURAMAX
®diesel
and Isuzu diesel engine vehicles have a computer
that lets you know when to change the engine oil. This
is not based on mileage, but on engine operation and
engine temperature. When the computer has calculated
that the oil needs changing, the Engine Oil Life System
will indicate that a change is necessary. SeeEngine Oil
Life System (Gasoline Engine) on page 5-36orEngine
Oil Life System (DURAMAX
®/Isuzu Diesel Engines) on
page 5-37orEngine Oil Life System (Caterpillar®Diesel
Engine) on page 5-39.
The “Footnotes” at the end of this Maintenance
Schedule further explain maintenance services.
