Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. 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.”
Ford recommends changing your 2002 Explorer Sport Trac’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Explorer Sport Trac may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Ford if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Ford Explorer Sport Trac. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Ford has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine. In an oil change service, an auto technician will change your Explorer Sport Trac’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off important fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Explorer Sport Trac by taking into account your driving preferences, weather and road conditions,
