Oil Changes for 1991 Alfa Romeo 164

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1991 Alfa Romeo 164? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Alfa Romeo recommends having your 1991 Alfa Romeo 164’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your 164 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Alfa Romeo recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Alfa Romeo 164. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 1991 Alfa Romeo 164 motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Alfa Romeo has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1991 164. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your 164’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, check all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your 164 by considering your driving style, and the number of miles on your odometer.
