Oil Changes for 2016 Cadillac Escalade

Need more info about 2016 Cadillac Escalade oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Cadillac recommends having your 2016 Cadillac Escalade’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 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 notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Cadillac if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, 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. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2016 Cadillac Escalade motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Cadillac has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best motor oil for your 2016 Escalade. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, regulate engine temperature, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your Escalade’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car 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 Escalade by taking into account your driving style, and the number of miles on your odometer.
