I'm surprised GM didn't do a revision page for the 17 and 18's.

That's all I got, LOL Can you say, hey I'm on the way to the track? LOL LS/LT 1LE, SS 1LE, and ZL1 Change the engine oil to 0W-40 or 5W-40 that meets the dexos2 specification. If this oil is not available, the following oils can be used as an alternative: Valvoline SYNPOWER MST 5W-40 or Mobil 1 15W-50. If 15W-50 is used, the engine oil must be changed after the track event. For LS/LT 1LE, add 0.9 L (1.0 qt) of oil over the nominal fill level for a track event. After the competitive driving, remove the excess oil so that the level on the dipstick is not above the upper mark that shows the proper operating range.

This many have been answered already, maybe not. But:
Can someone please explain to me how GM or a dealership would be able to prove you are using 0w-40 instead of 5w-40? Other than if you showed them a receipt for the oil you purchased or an invoice for an oil change done with 0w-40 at an independent shop. Not sure why you'd do that, but... |

Corporate chevy finally called me back after being escalated to 2 more departments and waiting a week for a response. I was told the 0w-40 esp oil is only for 2019's and warranty would be denied for any engine failures related to oil if i use it in my 2018. So use at your own risk...
