Cadillac recommends having your 2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Outside of Cadillac-recommended oil change intervals, your Escalade EXT may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, 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 terrain, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Cadillac Escalade EXT. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Cadillac Escalade EXT engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Cadillac Escalade EXT engine failure. 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. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. 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 Escalade EXT 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. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Cadillac Escalade EXT? 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.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Cadillac Escalade EXT to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Cadillac Escalade EXT oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Cadillac Escalade EXT? You should replace your Cadillac Escalade EXT 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.
