Ford recommends having your 1996 Ford Probe’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Probe in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Probe may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Ford recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, 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 Ford Probe. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
