Chevrolet recommends having your 2005 Chevrolet Impala’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Impala in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Impala may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Chevrolet Impala. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
