Oil Change Q&A for Your 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, overheat, 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 oil on my own? 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 Silverado 2500 HD spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who does Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD? 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.
  • Do I need to replace my Silverado 2500 HD’s oil filter when changing my oil? 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.
