Ford recommends having your 1987 Ford Taurus’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Taurus in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Taurus may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Ford Taurus. 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.
