Not sure how or where to get your Dodge D150’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of 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.
Dodge recommends changing your 1988 D150’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your D150 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Dodge if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Dodge D150. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 1988 Dodge D150 motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Dodge has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 1988 D150. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, maintain proper engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During your oil change service, one of our techs will change your D150’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect the rest of your car’s 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 D150 by considering your driving style, and mileage.
Wondering if we carry the right motor oil for your Dodge? Your D150 engine deserves the very best, which is why we only stock the best!
