168 Service and maintenance
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS
AND LUBRICANTS
Only use products that have been tested
and approved. Damage resulting from
the use of non-approved materials will
not be covered by the warranty.
Warning
Operating materials are hazardous
and could be poisonous. Handle with
care. Pay attention to information
given on containers.
Topping up engine oil
Only use 5W-30 ACEA A3/B4 Engine
oil.
Use of ACEA A1/B1 and A5/B5 engine
oil is expressly forbidden, since they can
cause long-term engine damage under
certain operating conditions.
Engine oil additives
The use of engine oil additives could
cause damage and invalidate the war-
ranty.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use GMI supplied premix coolant only.
Coolant additives intended to give addi-
tional corrosion protection or seal against
minor leaks can cause function prob-
lems.
Liability for consequences resulting from
the use of coolant additives will be
rejected.
Brake and clutch fluid
Only use DOT4 brake fluid.
Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture
which will reduce braking effectiveness.
The brake fluid should therefore be
replaced at the specified interval.
Brake fluid should be stored in a sealed
container to avoid water absorption.
Ensure brake fluid does not become
contaminated.
Caution
Using brake fluid other than GM
recommended brake fluid may cause
corrosion to components of brake
system. Corrosion may make the
brake system not work well and
could cause a crash.
Power steering fluid
Only use Dexron VI fluid.
Automatic transmission fluid
Only use Dexron VI fluid.
Manual transmission fluid
Only use BOT303 Mod fluid.
