Services - Severe
(1) Or every two years, whichever
comes first. More frequent
passenger compartment air filter
replacement may be needed if
driving in areas with heavy traffic,
poor air quality, high dust levels,
or environmental allergens.
Passenger compartment air filter
replacement may also be needed if
there is reduced airflow, window
fogging, or odors. Your GM dealer
can help determine when to replace
the filter.
(2) Visually check all fuel and vapor
lines and hoses for proper
attachment, connection, routing, and
condition.
(3) Or every four years, whichever
comes first. If driving in dusty
conditions, inspect the filter at each
oil change or more often as needed.
(4) Do not directly power wash the
transfer case and/or front/rear axle
output seals. High pressure water
can overcome the seals and
contaminate the fluid. Contaminated fluid will decrease the life of the
transfer case and/or drive axles and
should be replaced.
(5)
Or every five years, whichever
comes first. See Cooling System
0 227.
(6) Or every 10 years, whichever
comes first. Inspect for fraying,
excessive cracking, or damage;
replace, if needed.
(7) Replace fluid every five years in
vehicles with an automatic
transmission and every three years
in vehicles with a manual
transmission. See Brake Fluid
0 234.
(8) Or every 12 months, whichever
comes first. See Wiper Blade
Replacement 0238.
