Oil Change Q&A for Your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD

  • Should I check my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine.

That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. 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 help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
