When to Change 2015 Cadillac ATS Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2015 Cadillac ATS? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 2015 ATS’s oil should be changed according to Cadillac’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your ATS may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, 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, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Cadillac ATS. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
