Cadillac recommends having your 2012 Cadillac Escalade EXT’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Escalade EXT may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Cadillac recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Cadillac Escalade EXT. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Cadillac Escalade EXT. Cadillac has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 2012 Escalade EXT. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During an oil change, an auto technician will change your Escalade EXT’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, check all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Escalade EXT by considering your driving preferences, weather and road conditions,
