1st post for you. 👍 How many miles? Are you having issues? Hard starting? I use CRC GDI cleaner on a 3.6 LFX Equinox. The LFX replaced the LLT in the 2012 Camaro, very similiar engines. The LFX was an improved LLT, sort of. I clean the throttle body. Then use a vacuum port to spray into the intake while running. Just seal off around the port to keep the vehicle running more easily. You can also insert the spray tube at the throttle body boot. If you do not know where I'm talking about, stay downstream from the MAF or sensors. Do it a 100-200 miles before the oil change and follow the directions on the can. I do it about every ~7000 miles. I'm pulling the intake off in the spring. Will determine how effective CRC has been.
