Your 1984 Fleetwood’s oil should be changed according to Cadillac’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Fleetwood may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Cadillac Fleetwood. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1984 Cadillac Fleetwood Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Cadillac Fleetwood? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Cadillac Fleetwood engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Cadillac Fleetwood 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 with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Cadillac Fleetwood spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
