How Often to Change 1991 Cadillac Allante Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1991 Cadillac Allante? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just 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.

Cadillac recommends changing your 1991 Allante’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Allante in the above table. Outside of Cadillac-recommended oil change intervals, your Allante may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Cadillac if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Cadillac Allante. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1991 Cadillac Allante Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Cadillac Allante motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Cadillac Allante engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Cadillac Allante oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Cadillac Allante exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Cadillac Allante? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Cadillac Allante oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is my Cadillac Allante oil light illuminated? Your Cadillac Allante oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Cadillac Allante? Every time you change the oil in your Cadillac Allante, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
