When to Change 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Engine Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD’s oil changed? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Chevrolet recommends changing your 2010 Silverado 2500 HD’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Silverado 2500 HD may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Chevrolet if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What’s the Right Type of Oil for 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD?

Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your Silverado 2500 HD’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off essential fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Silverado 2500 HD by taking into account your driving preferences, and the number of miles on your odometer.

2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle 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, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who does Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD 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.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD? It's recommended that you replace your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
