Your 2009 Suburban 1500’s oil should be changed according to Chevrolet’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.

2009 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chevrolet Suburban 1500? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to Chevrolet Suburban 1500 engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Chevrolet Suburban 1500 oil at home? 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 professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Suburban 1500 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Chevrolet Suburban 1500? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Chevrolet Suburban 1500 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.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Suburban 1500 oil light illuminated? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Chevrolet Suburban 1500 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.
  • Does my Suburban 1500's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Chevrolet Suburban 1500 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.
