When to Change 1996 Chrysler Sebring Engine Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Chrysler Sebring’s oil changed? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 1996 Sebring’s oil should be changed according to Chrysler’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Sebring in the above table. Outside of Chrysler-recommended oil change intervals, your Sebring may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Chrysler if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Chrysler Sebring. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What Type of Oil Does My Chrysler Sebring Need?

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Chrysler Sebring. Chrysler has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best motor oil for your 1996 Sebring. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. In an oil change service, an auto technician will change your Sebring’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Sebring by considering your driving style, and the number of miles on your odometer.

1996 Chrysler Sebring Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chrysler Sebring? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Sebring’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Chrysler Sebring 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. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Chrysler Sebring exhaust smoke grayish or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Chrysler Sebring? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Chrysler Sebring oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What does it mean if my Chrysler Sebring oil light comes on? Your Chrysler Sebring oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Does my Sebring's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Chrysler Sebring every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
