Materials Added To Engine Oil
The manufacturer strongly recommends against the ad-

dition of any additives (other than leak detection dyes) to

the engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered product and its

performance may be impaired by supplemental addi-

tives.

Engine Oil Change Requirements — 6.2L
Supercharged Engine (If Equipped)
We recommend having your oil changed and vehicle

serviced by your authorized dealer. You should only

perform maintenance procedures and or repairs for

which you have the knowledge and the right equipment.
Your 6.2L Supercharged engine (if equipped) has a

unique engine oil system. The system contains a drain in

the engine oil pan and the engine oil cooler. It is neces-

sary for the service technician to drain both the engine oil

pan and the engine oil cooler to properly perform the

engine oil change procedure. Failure to drain the engine

oil cooler will result in overfilling your vehicle’s engine

oil system.
NOTE:

Do not overfill crankcase with engine oil, pres-

sure loss or oil foaming can result.
