Changing Supercharger Oil?
Just a few questions on supercharger maintenance....
I was reading my manual for my 05 Monte SS and it mentioned something about changing the supercharger oil. It wasn’t specific on when to change it or how often. Can I change it myself or do I have to bring it to my Chevy dealer and get it changed. I know it lists a specific kind of oil.
Thanks in advanced

I changed mine at 50,000 miles. Easy job to do your self. Just go to Chevy dealer and ask for 2 bottles of supercharger oil. Just suck the old oil out and pour the new in. Dont worry you cant overfill it. You will see a plug with a torx center on supercharger on passenger side of motor towards the front on the motor. Thats the one you want to take out.
The GM Service Manual says to check it every 30,000 miles. You may need to add. It doesn't say anything about changing the oil. I have heard of people using a small turkey baster or something similar to an eye dropper to remove the oil.
I do know from tearing apart my Gen V that there isn't that much oil in there and it really stinks.
