Fluids list for 2011 LLT V6

Anyone know what the fluid recommendations are for power steering, trans, and differential? And what type of spark plugs?

It does say it, thanks, so do we need friction modifier for differential, or just 75-90?

Yeah, it'll be GM stuff......but its good stuff.
If you shop atound you'll find stuff that say whether it has modifier included.
If you stick to the brand names ...you will be fine.

(For these V6's) You'll need the friction modifier if you have a manual. Auto is just regular
75W-90. Since I have a manual, I use the royal purple that has the friction modifier already in it.

Power steering fluid was ATF fluid in my 2010 manual but they changed it to GM (acdelco) fluid which is better than the dex 6 I had.

I always live by....when in doubt, use what factory recommends. There are a lot of good products out there. Im an oddball....not yet sold on all the synthetic stuff. Had great results with Lucas. I even have Shell marine grade transmission fluid in my gearbox.
Point is, you can use what you want and you car wont explode. The GM stuff can easily be cross refernced.
Have fun.
