										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px;"><strong>2004-2006 Pontiac GTO Maintenance Schedule</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Following a maintenance schedule for your vehicle will not only improve performance but also improve longevity </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">in how long your car will last. Avoid costly repairs by regularly maintaining your vehicle and inspecting and servicing it at the required intervals. A maintenance schedule includes inspection as well as servicing your vehicle to ensure it is operating as safely and efficiently as it should while driving.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">The Maintenance Schedule can be found in your vehicle&#8217;s owner&#8217;s manual and also in the service manual. For your convenience, I have made the following maintenance schedule for you. The maintenance for all 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO&#8217;s is the same. The 2004 Pontiac GTO has the LS1 5.7 Litre, and the 2005-2006 Pontiac GTO&#8217;s have the LS2 6.0 Litre engine. Both engines require the same maintenance and service.</span></p>
