Not sure how or where to get your Chevrolet K20 Suburban’s oil changed? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”
Chevrolet recommends changing your 1983 K20 Suburban’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your K20 Suburban in the above table. Outside of Chevrolet-recommended oil change intervals, your K20 Suburban may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Chevrolet recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet K20 Suburban. 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 1983 Chevrolet K20 Suburban motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Chevrolet has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1983 Chevrolet K20 Suburban vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your K20 Suburban’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off important 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 K20 Suburban by considering your driving preferences, and the number of miles on your odometer.
