Any vehicle consistently operated in a
high sand or dust environment such as
those used on oil pipelines and similar
applications.
Vehicles that are regularly used for short
trips of 6 km or less.
The Oil Life Indicator will show you when
to change the oil and filter. Under severe
conditions the indicator may come on
before 10 000 km. The indicator won't
detect dust in the oil, so if you drive in a
dusty area you may have to change the
oil and filter sooner than every
10 000 km.
* Footnote: Under extreme driving
conditions listed above, it may be
necessary to replace your spark plugs at
more frequent intervals. For further
assistance in determining the most
suitable service maintenance intervals for
your vehicle, please contact your
authorized GM Dealer.
