How Often to Change 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5 Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5? 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.

Chevrolet recommends having your 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Aveo5 in the above table. Outside of Chevrolet-recommended oil change intervals, your Aveo5 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Chevrolet recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet Aveo5. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5 motor oil: either synthetic or conventional.
