As shown in the chart, SAE 5W-30 is
best for your vehicle. However, you
can use SAE
1OW-30 if it’s going to
be
0°F (-18°C) or above.
These numbers on an oil container
show its viscosity, or thickness. Do
not use other viscosity oils such as
SAE 1OW-40 or SAE 20W-50.
[f you cannot find oils with the new
‘starburst” symbol on the front of the
;ontainer, you should look for and use
3ils containing the following three
:hings:
SH or SG
“SH’ or “SG” must be on the oil
container , either by itself or
combined with other quality
designations, such as “SH/CD,”
“SH, SG, CD,” “SG/CD,” etc. These
letters show American Petroleum
Institute
(API) levels of quality.
SAE

Energy Conserving I1
Oils
with these words on the
container will help you save fuel.
These three things are usually included
in a doughnut shaped logo (symbol) on
most containers.
If you cannot find oils
with the “starburst” symbol, you should
look for oils with the doughnut shaped
symbol, containing the three things
noted above.
NOTICE:
If you use oils that do not have
either the “starburst” symbol or an
API SH or SG designation, you can
cause engine damage not covered
by your warranty.
GM Goodwrench@ oil (in Canada, GM
Engine Oil) meets all the requirements
for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Additives:
Don’t add anything to your oil. Your
Chevrolet dealer is ready to advise if
you
think something should be added.
