Hummer Oil changeI have a Hummer 2006 H2, and the Oil life shows only 30%, how many more miles before changing oil?The GM Oil Life System is not simply a mileage counter; it is a computer-based software algorithm that calculates the right time to change a vehicle's engine oil based on operating conditions. When it is time for an oil change, a "change oil" message will light up on the instrument panel or driver information center. The vehicle oil should then be changed within 600 miles of the display message. The GM Oil Life System monitors engine combustion events while also estimating oil temperature based on other engine operating conditions. Short trips, cold temperatures and towing loads all shorten the time between oil changes, while highway driving and milder temperatures extend the life of engine oil. The GM Oil Life System will automatically adjust the oil-change interval based on driving habits, engine characteristics and climate. From here, the computer is able to determine the rate of oil deterioration and notifies the driver when to change the oil. I hope this information helps you.
