How Often to Get 1998 Cadillac Seville Oil Changes

Not sure how or where to get your Cadillac Seville’s oil changed? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about 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 changing your 1998 Seville’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Seville may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Cadillac if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Cadillac Seville. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

What Type of Oil Does My Cadillac Seville Need?

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1998 Cadillac Seville motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Cadillac has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1998 Cadillac Seville vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your Seville’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Seville by considering your driving preferences, and odometer.

1998 Cadillac Seville Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my Cadillac Seville motor oil level? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Cadillac Seville engine failure. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Cadillac Seville oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 Seville 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, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does Cadillac Seville oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Cadillac Seville oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What does it mean if my Cadillac Seville oil light comes on? Your Cadillac Seville oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Cadillac Seville? Every time you change the oil in your Cadillac Seville, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
