What Kind of Engine Oil to Use

Look for three things:

Use only an oil that meets GM Standard

SAE 5W-30 is best for the vehicle. These numbers

on an oil container show its viscosity, or thickness.

Do not use other viscosity oils such as

American Petroleum Institute (API) starburst

Notice: Use only engine oil identified as meeting

GM Standard GM6094M and showing the American

Petroleum Institute Certified For Gasoline Engines

starburst symbol. Failure to use the recommended

oil can result in engine damage not covered by the

vehicle warranty.

I n f o r ma t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :

Oils meeting these

requirements should have

the starburst symbol on

the container. This symbol

indicates that the oil has

been certified by the

American Petroleum

Institute (API).
