Should I check my Chevrolet Tahoe motor oil level?

Chevrolet recommends having your 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Chevrolet-recommended oil change intervals, your Tahoe may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Chevrolet recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Chevrolet Tahoe. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
