What Kind of Engine Oil to Use
For Vehicles with the 2.2L L4 (L61)
Engine Only
Look for two things:
GM6094M
Your vehicle’s engine requires oil meeting GM
Standard GM6094M. You should look for and use
only an oil that meets GM Standard GM6094M.
SAE 5W-30
As shown in the viscosity chart, SAE 5W-30 is best
for your vehicle.
These numbers on an oil container show its
viscosity, or thickness. Do not use other viscosity
oils such as SAE 20W-50.
Oils meeting these
requirements should also
have the starburst
symbol on the container.
This symbol indicates
that the oil has been
certi ed by the American
Petroleum Institute (API).
You should look for this information on the oil container,
and useonlythose oils that are identi ed as meeting
GM Standard GM6094M and have the starburst symbol
on the front of the oil container.

oil can result in engine damage not covered by
your warranty.
If you are in an area of extreme cold, where the
temperature falls below−20°F (−29°C), it is
recommended that you use either an SAE 5W-30
synthetic oil or an SAE 0W-30 oil. Both will provide
easier cold starting and better protection for your engine
at extremely low temperatures.For Vehicles with the 3.5L V6 (L66)
Engine Only
As shown in the viscosity chart, SAE 5W-20 is best for
