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 1985 Eldorado’s oil should be changed according to Cadillac’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Eldorado in the above table. Outside of Cadillac-recommended oil change intervals, your Eldorado 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 areas, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Cadillac Eldorado. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1985 Cadillac Eldorado Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Cadillac Eldorado engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Cadillac Eldorado engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Cadillac Eldorado oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Cadillac Eldorado spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who does Cadillac Eldorado oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Cadillac Eldorado 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 Eldorado oil light illuminated? Your Cadillac Eldorado 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.
  • Does my Eldorado's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Cadillac Eldorado oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
