Oil Change Q&A for Your 1990 Chevrolet V1500 Suburban

  • Should I check my Chevrolet V1500 Suburban motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine.

Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Chevrolet V1500 Suburban spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
