2015 Chevrolet Colorado Fluid Capacities
OEM fluid capacity chart from the factory service manual for the 2015 (2015).
Quick Answer
Air Cond Compressor Oil
3.00 OZS. (0.08 L) — PAG 46
Automatic Transmission Fluid
6.70 QTS. (6.34 L) — Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRON VI
Brake Fluid
— DOT 3 Hydraulic Brake Fluid
Differential Gear Oil
2.70 PTS. (1.27 L) — SAE 75W-90 Gear Oil Note: GM Part No. 88863089.
Engine Coolant (2.5L Eng)
9.61 QTS. (9.09 L) — 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL and clean, drinkable water
Engine Oil (2.5L Eng)
5.00 QTS. (4.73 L) — API - SAE 5W-20 Note: Use only engine oil licensed to the dexos1 specification or equivalent, of the proper SAE viscosity grade. ACDelco dexos1 Synthetic Blend is recommended. SAE 5W-20 is the best viscosity grade for the vehicle. Do not use other viscosity grade oils such as SAE 10W-30, 10W-40, or 20W-50. If in an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -20Deg.F (-29Deg.C), an SAE 0W-30 oil may be used. An oil of this viscosity grade will provide easier cold starting for the engine at extremely low temperatures.
Manual Transmission Fluid
3.17 QTS. (2.99 L) — Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRON VI
Transfer Case Fluid
2.00 QTS. (1.89 L) — Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRON VI
Engine Coolant (3.6L Eng)
13.05 QTS. (12.34 L) — 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL and clean, drinkable water
Engine Oil (3.6L Eng)
6.00 QTS. (5.67 L) — API - SAE 5W-30 Note: Use only engine oil licensed to the dexos1 specification or equivalent, of the proper SAE viscosity grade. ACDelco dexos1 Synthetic Blend is recommended. SAE 5W-30 is the best viscosity grade for the vehicle. Do not use other viscosity grade oils such as SAE 10W-30, 10W-40, or 20W-50. If in an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -20Deg.F (-29Deg.C), an SAE 0W-30 oil may be used. An oil of this viscosity grade will provide easier cold starting for the engine at extremely low temperatures.
