timing belt CHEVROLET OPTRA 5 2007 1.G Owners Manual

Selecting the Right Schedule
First you will need to decide which of the
two schedules is right for your vehicle. Here
is how to decide which schedule to follow:
Short Trip/City Denition
Follow the Short Trip/City Scheduled Maintenance
if any one of these conditions is true for your
vehicle:
•Most trips are less than 5 miles (8 km).
This is particularly important when outside
temperatures are below freezing.
•Most trips include extensive idling, such as
frequent driving in stop-and-go traffic.
•If the vehicle is used for delivery service,
police, taxi, or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you should follow this schedule
if you operate your vehicle under any of these
conditions is that these conditions cause engine oil
to break down sooner.
Short Trip/City Intervals
Every 3,000 Miles (5 000 km):Engine Oil and
Filter Change and Engine Oil Pan Drain Plug
Washer Replacement (or 3 months, whichever
occurs first).
Every 6,000 Miles (10 000 km):Tire Rotation.
Every 15,000 Miles (25 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Inspection. Passenger Compartment
Air Filter Replacement. Drive Belt(s) Inspection.
Every 30,000 Miles (50 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Replacement. Spark Plug
Replacement. EVAP System Service. PCV
System Service. Timing Belt Inspection.
Brake/Clutch Fluid Change (or 24 months,
whichever occurs first).
Every 60,000 Miles (100 000 km):Spark Plug
Wire Replacement. Timing Belt Replacement.
EVAP System Solenoid Valve Replacement.
359

Every 90,000 Miles (150 000 km):Fuel Filter
Replacement.
Every 150,000 Miles (240 000 km):Cooling
System Service.
These intervals only summarize maintenance
services. Be sure to follow the complete scheduled
maintenance on the following pages.
Long Trip/Highway Denition
Follow this scheduled maintenanceonlyif none of
the conditions from the Short Trip/City Scheduled
Maintenance are true. Do not use this schedule
if the vehicle is driven in a dusty area or used off
paved roads. Use the Short Trip/City schedule
for these conditions.
Driving a vehicle with a fully warmed engine
under highway conditions will cause engine oil to
break down slower.
Long Trip/Highway Intervals
Every 7,500 Miles (12 500 km):Engine Oil and
Filter Change and Engine Oil Pan Drain Plug
Washer Replacement (or every 12 months,
whichever occurs first). Tire Rotation.
Every 15,000 Miles (25 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Inspection. Passenger Compartment
Air Filter Replacement. Drive Belt(s) Inspection.
Every 30,000 Miles (50 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Replacement. Spark Plug
Replacement. EVAP System Service. PCV
System Service. Timing Belt Inspection.
Brake/Clutch Fluid Change (or 24 months,
whichever occurs first).
Every 60,000 Miles (100 000 km):Spark Plug
Wire Replacement. Timing Belt Replacement.
EVAP System Solenoid Valve Replacement.
Every 90,000 Miles (150 000 km):Fuel Filter
Replacement.
Every 150,000 Miles (240 000 km):Cooling
System Service.
These intervals only summarize maintenance
services. Be sure to follow the complete scheduled
maintenance on the following pages.
