Chevrolet recommends changing your 2010 Express 3500’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Express 3500 may need its oil changed ASAP 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.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2010 Chevrolet Express 3500

  • What can low oil do to my Chevrolet Express 3500 engine? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Express 3500’s 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 Chevrolet Express 3500 oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does Chevrolet Express 3500 oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Chevrolet Express 3500 oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Express 3500 oil light illuminated? Your Chevrolet Express 3500 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.
  • Do I need to replace my Express 3500’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Chevrolet Express 3500 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.
