OEM fluid capacity chart from the factory service manual for the 2023 (2023).
Quick Answer
Air Cond Compressor Oil
11.00 OZS. (0.32 L) — PAG 46
Automatic Transmission Fluid (8 Spd Trans)
7.40 QTS. (7 L) — Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRON HP Note: Approximate capacity.
Brake Fluid
— DOT 4 Hydraulic Brake Fluid
Differential Gear Oil
2.59 QTS. (2.45 L) — SAE 75W-85 Synthetic Gear Oil Note: Rear Locking Differential Clutch (friction disc) Disc (9.5 Inch Axle). 19300457 or equivalent meeting GM Specification 9986375.
Engine Coolant (4.3L Eng)
10.70 QTS. (10.12 L) — 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL and clean, drinkable water Note: All capacities are approximate. When adding, be sure to fill to the approximate level. Recheck the fluid level after filling.
Engine Oil (4.3L Eng)
5.50 QTS. (5.2 L) — API - SAE 5W-30 Note: DEXOS1 Gen3 Full synthetic engine oil. Cold Temperature Operation: In an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -29Deg. C (-20Deg. 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 an oil that meets the required specification, dexos.
Power Steering Fluid
2.32 PTS. (1.09 L)
Automatic Transmission Fluid (6 Spd Trans)
6.00 QTS. (5.67 L) — Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRON VI Note: Approximate capacity.
Engine Coolant (6.6L Eng)
11.60 QTS. (10.97 L) — 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL and clean, drinkable water Note: All capacities are approximate. When adding, be sure to fill to the approximate level. Recheck the fluid level after filling.
Engine Oil (6.6L Eng)
7.50 QTS. (7.09 L) — API - SAE 5W-30 Note: DEXOS1 Gen3 Full synthetic engine oil. Cold Temperature Operation: In an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -29Deg. C (-20Deg. 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 an oil that meets the required specification, dexos.
