Part A: Scheduled Maintenance
Services
Using Your Maintenance Schedule
We at General Motors want to help you keep your
vehicle
in good working condition. But we don't know
exactly how you'll drive it. You may drive very short
distances only
a few times a week. Or you may drive
long distances all
the time in very hot, dusty weather.
You may use your vehicle in making deliveries.
Or
you may drive it to work, to do errands or in
many other ways.
Because of all the different ways people use their
vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You may even need
more frequent checks and replacements than you'll find
in the schedules in this section.
So please read this
section and note how
you drive. If you have any
questions
on how to keep your vehicle in good
condition, see your dealer.
This part tells
you the maintenance services you should
have done and when you should schedule them. If you
go to your dealer for your service needs, you'll know
that GM-trained and supported service people
will
perform the work using genuine parts. The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed
in Part D.
Make sure whoever services your vehicle uses these. All
pats
should be replaced and all necessary repairs done
before you or anyone else drives the vehicle.
These schedules are for vehicles that:
0 carry passengers and cargo within recommended
limits, You
will find these limits on your vehicle's
Certification/Tire label. See "Loading Your Vehicle"
in the Index.
0 are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal
driving limits.
0 are driven off-road in the recommended manner. See
"Off-Road Driving With Your Four-Wheel-Drive
Vehicle"
in the Index.
0 use the recommended fuel. See "Fuel" in the Index.
Selecting the Right Schedule
First you'll need to decide which of the two schedules is
right for your vehicle. Here's how to decide which
schedule
to follow:
Gasoline engine vehicles and diesel engine vehicles
have different maintenance requirements.
If you have a
diesel engine, follow a schedule designated for diesel
engine vehicles only.
See the Diesel Engine Supplement for diesel engine
maintenance schedules.
