Dodge recommends having your 1995 Dodge Intrepid’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Intrepid may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.
