Chevrolet recommends having your 2014 Chevrolet Volt’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 Volt may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Chevrolet recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chevrolet Volt. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2014 Chevrolet Volt Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Chevrolet Volt engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Volt’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Chevrolet Volt oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 Volt spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of 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 old cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Chevrolet Volt oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Chevrolet Volt oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Volt oil light illuminated? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Chevrolet Volt 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 Volt's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Chevrolet Volt, 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.
