Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Chevrolet recommends changing your 2016 Silverado 3500 HD’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Silverado 3500 HD may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of 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, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2016 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD engine failure. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD 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. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of 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, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Chevrolet Silverado 3500 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 does it mean if my Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD oil light comes on? Your Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD 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.
  • Do I need to replace my Silverado 3500 HD’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
