Chevrolet Captiva maintenance when trailer towing. Your vehicle will need service more often when you’re pulling a trailer. See the maintenance schedule in the service guide for more information on this. Things that are especially important in trailer operation are automatic transaxle fluid (don’t overfill), engine oil, belt, cooling system, brake fluid and brake adjustment. Each of these is covered in this manual and the index will help you find them quickly. If you’re trailering, it’s a good idea to review these sections before you start your trip. Check periodically to see that all hitch nuts and bolts are tight.

Chevrolet Captiva engine oil. Keep your engine properly lubricated by keeping the engine oil at the correct level. It is normal for an engine to consume some engine oil. Check the oil level at regular intervals such as every time you stop for fuel. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil must be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.

How to check engine oil level on a Chevrolet Captiva.

1. Park vehicle on level ground.
2. Turn off the engine and give the oil 10 minutes to drain back into the oil pan. If this is not done, the oil dipstick might not show the actual level.
3. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean. See “ENGINE COMPARTMENT” on a previous page in this section for more information on location.
4. Re-insert dipstick completely.
5. Pull the dipstick out again.
6. .
7. Check the oil on the dipstick to make sure it is not contaminated.
8. Check oil level, as shown on the dipstick. Oil should be between MIN and MAX If oil level is not clear, read the opposite side
9. of gauge instead. Different dipsticks are used depending on engine variant.
10. 
11. If the oil level is below MIN, add enough oil of the same grade as is currently in the engine to raise the oil level to MAX. Do not fill over MAX mark. The engine oil filler cap is where you add oil. See “ENGINE COMPARTMENT” on a previous page in this section for more information on location. See “FLUID CHART” in the index for oil specification.

What engine oil should I use on a Chevrolet Captiva depending on the temperature – weather. SAE 5W-30 is the best viscosity grade for the vehicle. SAE 0W-30, 0W-40, or 5W-40 can also be used. Do not use other viscosity oils such as SAE 10W-30, 10W-40, or 20W-50. In an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -29°C (-20°F), an SAE 0W-30 oil should be used. An oil of this viscosity grade will provide easier cold starting for the engine at extremely low temperatures. When selecting an oil of the appropriate viscosity grade, be sure to always select oil that meets the required specification.
