Cadillac CT6 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-12533370) -
2019 - crc - 1/23/19
DRIVING AND OPERATING 277
Recommended Fuel (2.0L
L4 Turbo Engine)
Do not use any fuel labeled E85 or
FlexFuel. Do not use gasoline with
ethanol levels greater than 15% by
volume.
Premium unleaded gasoline meeting
ASTM specification D4814 with a
posted octane rating of 93 is highly
recommended for best performance
and fuel economy. Unleaded gasoline
with an octane rated as low as 87 can
be used. Using unleaded gasoline
rated below 93 octane, however, will
lead to reduced acceleration and fuel
economy. If knocking occurs, use a
gasoline rated at 93 octane as soon as
possible, other wise, the engine could
be damaged. If heavy knocking is
heard when using gasoline with a
93 octane rating, the engine needs
service.
Recommended Fuel (3.0L
Twin Turbo V6 and 4.2L
Twin Turbo V8 Engines)
Do not use any fuel labeled E85 or
FlexFuel. Do not use gasoline with
ethanol levels greater than 15% by
volume.
Use premium unleaded gasoline
meeting ASTM specification D4814
with a posted octane rating of 93.
If unavailable, unleaded gasoline with
a posted octane rating of 91 may be
used, but with reduced per formance
and fuel economy. If the octane is less
than 91, the engine could be damaged
and the repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. If heavy
knocking is heard when using gasoline
rated at 93 octane, the engine needs
service.
Recommended Fuel (3.6L
V6 Engine)
Do not use any fuel labeled E85 or
FlexFuel. Do not use gasoline with
ethanol levels greater than 15% by
volume.
Use regular unleaded gasoline meeting
ASTM specification D4814 with a
posted octane rating of 87 or higher.
Do not use gasoline with a posted
octane rating of less than 87, as this
may cause engine knock and will
lower fuel economy.
