Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”
Chrysler recommends having your 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Chrysler-recommended oil change intervals, your Fifth Avenue may need an oil change 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 Chrysler if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Chrysler Fifth Avenue. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.
Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Chrysler Fifth Avenue. Chrysler has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1988 Fifth Avenue. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your Fifth Avenue’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, check all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Fifth Avenue by considering your driving preferences, and the number of miles on your odometer.
