Chevrolet recommends changing your 1991 R2500 Suburban’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your R2500 Suburban in the above table. Outside of Chevrolet-recommended oil change intervals, your R2500 Suburban may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, 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, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1991 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chevrolet R2500 Suburban? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your R2500 Suburban’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Chevrolet R2500 Suburban 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. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet R2500 Suburban exhaust smoke grayish 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 offers Chevrolet R2500 Suburban oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Chevrolet R2500 Suburban oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Chevrolet R2500 Suburban oil light illuminated? Your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban 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.
  • Does my R2500 Suburban's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
