Service Information
In order to ensure economical and
safe vehicle operation and to
maintain the value of your vehicle, it
is of vital importance that all
maintenance work is carried out at
the proper intervals as specified.
See your Service/Warranty Booklet
for the service schedules and for
more information.
Engine oil life system
Changing engine oil
The vehicle has a computer system
that indicates when to change the
engine oil and filter. This is based
on a combination of factors which
include engine revolutions, engine
temperature and kilometres driven.
Based on driving conditions, the
kilometres at which an oil change is
indicated can vary considerably.
For the oil life system to work
properly, the system must be reset
every time the oil is changed.
When the system has calculated
that oil life has been diminished, it
indicates that an oil change is
necessary. The vehicle message
Code 82 or Change
: % (Change
engine oil soon) is displayed.
Change the oil as soon as possible
within the next 750 km.
It is possible that, if you are driving
under the best conditions, the oil life
system may indicate that an oil
change is not necessary for a longer
period than that shown in the
service schedule. However, the
engine oil and filter must be
changed in accordance with the
service schedules outlined in the
service booklet.
A Holden dealer has trained service
people who will perform this work
and reset the system.
To reset the EOLS, Driver
