When to Change 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Chevrolet recommends having your 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Monte Carlo in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Monte Carlo 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 excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Chevrolet recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet Monte Carlo. 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 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo motor oil: either synthetic or conventional.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

  • What can low oil do to my Chevrolet Monte Carlo engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Chevrolet Monte Carlo engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Chevrolet Monte Carlo oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, 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 can change the oil on my Chevrolet Monte Carlo? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Chevrolet Monte Carlo oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Monte Carlo oil light illuminated? Your Chevrolet Monte Carlo oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Does my Monte Carlo's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Chevrolet Monte Carlo, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
