Why check the motor oil level in my Cadillac XT6?

Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Cadillac XT6 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. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.

Why is my Cadillac XT6 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?

Does my XT6's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change?

You should replace your Cadillac XT6 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.

Your 2024 XT6’s oil should be changed according to Cadillac’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your XT6 in the above table.
