i'm not sure what that is in miles...i usually change oil every 4,000 miles and rotate tires on every other oil change. Check in the cars manual. It should have everything listed if not check out this site...www.edmunds.com. You can click where it says tips and advice then maintenance costs. It will give you an approximate mileage of when to change the oil and all that jazz. Only thing i notice is under 10,000 it says to change the cabin air filter...don't worry about that because our cars do not have one.

This lists the dealers maintenance schedule.


3,000 Miles
Change engine oil and filter as indicated by GM Oil Life System (or every 12 months, whichever occurs first)- usually between 3,000 miles and 12,000 miles since your last oil change.

7,500 Miles
Every 7,500 Miles - Check rear/front axle fluid level and add fluid as needed. Check constant velocity joints and axle seals for leaking.
Rotate Tires

Every 30,000 Miles - Replace fuel filter.

50,000 Miles

Noy sure, but doesn't the manual have the schedule? I am not in the same state right now with my TB to look :)

[deathbynosleep]

here's the lowdown...1 mile = 1.6km. So just multiply all those number by 1.6 and that's what they are in km. 3000 miles = 4800 km.

[TBlazeruss44]

Yo,Manbir,19,000 kilometers=11,806 miles....27,000 kilometers=16,777 miles...A kilometer is roughly five-eighths or in decimal form(for easy conversion) .625 miles...If you are using regular "dino" oil, your truck should be approaching at least it's 4th oil change....

Joey... how can you, of all people, stand to be so far away from your TB?

I have my oil changed every 3000 mi, which works out to be about every 6-8 weeks. But I get $9.95 oil changes and I'm overly cautious... :m2:
