How Often to Get 2023 Cadillac CT5 Oil Changes

Need more info about 2023 Cadillac CT5 oil changes? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Cadillac recommends having your 2023 Cadillac CT5’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Outside of Cadillac-recommended oil change intervals, your CT5 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of 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 terrain, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Cadillac CT5. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What Kind of Oil Should I Get for My Cadillac CT5?

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 2023 Cadillac CT5 motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Cadillac has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the best motor oil for your 2023 CT5. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, 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 CT5’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your CT5 by taking into account your driving habits, and mileage.

2023 Cadillac CT5 Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Cadillac CT5 engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Cadillac CT5 engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Cadillac oil on my own? 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. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Cadillac CT5 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Cadillac CT5 oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Cadillac CT5 oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Cadillac CT5 to illuminate? Your Cadillac CT5 oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Cadillac CT5? You should replace your Cadillac CT5 during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
