Dodge recommends changing your 1990 Monaco’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Monaco in the above table.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Dodge Monaco. 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.

1990 Dodge Monaco Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Dodge Monaco motor oil level? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Dodge Monaco engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Dodge Monaco oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might 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 Dodge exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does Dodge Monaco oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Dodge Monaco oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • What does it mean if my Dodge Monaco oil light comes on? Your Dodge Monaco oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my Monaco's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Dodge Monaco, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
