Your 2006 Silverado 1500’s oil should be changed according to Chevrolet’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Silverado 1500 in the above table. Outside of Chevrolet-recommended oil change intervals, your Silverado 1500 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 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, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet Silverado 1500. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
