10 schedules on file

Chevrolet maintenance schedules

Chevrolet runs the GM Oil Life System with a practical ceiling of 7,500 miles or one year, 45,000-mile air filters, 97,500-mile plugs on most engines, and Dexcool coolant plus brake fluid on five-year clocks. Severe duty halves the transmission and axle intervals.

The brand’s V8 trucks carry cylinder-deactivation hardware, AFM and later DFM, whose lifters and oil appetite are the best-known ownership issues. Oil level discipline between changes does more for these engines than any premium product.

Chevrolet quirks worth knowing

  • 01

    Small turbocharged fours use a 60,000-mile spark plug interval, far shorter than the brand’s traditional engines; it is the most commonly missed service.

  • 02

    The 8-speed automatic of the mid-2010s has a documented shudder fixed by a full exchange to updated fluid.

  • 03

    Everything specifies dexos1-licensed oil; the license mark on the bottle is the spec.
