2009 Cadillac Escalade EXT Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Cadillac Escalade EXT engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Cadillac Escalade EXT engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Cadillac Escalade EXT oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 Escalade EXT exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Cadillac Escalade EXT oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Cadillac Escalade EXT oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Cadillac Escalade EXT oil light illuminated? The oil change light in your Cadillac Escalade EXT could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Cadillac Escalade EXT? Every time you change the oil in your Cadillac Escalade EXT, you should also replace the oil filter.
