When to Change 1985 Chrysler Town & Country Engine Oil

Need more info about 1985 Chrysler Town & Country oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than 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.”

Your 1985 Town & Country’s oil should be changed according to Chrysler’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Chrysler-recommended oil change intervals, your Town & Country 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 Chrysler recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Chrysler Town & Country. 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 Town & Country Need?

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Chrysler Town & Country. Chrysler has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1985 Town & Country. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your Town & Country's oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off essential 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 Town & Country by considering your driving habits, and the number of miles on your odometer.

1985 Chrysler Town & Country Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Chrysler Town & Country? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Chrysler Town & Country engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Chrysler Town & Country oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Chrysler Town & Country spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Chrysler Town & Country? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Chrysler Town & Country oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What does it mean if my Chrysler Town & Country oil light comes on? Your Chrysler Town & Country 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.
  • Do I need to replace my Town & Country’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Chrysler Town & Country during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
