Can I change my Geo Metro oil at home?

How Often to Change 1995 Geo Metro Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Geo Metro’s oil changed? Get the advice you need at 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.”

Geo recommends having your 1995 Geo Metro’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Geo-recommended oil change intervals, your Metro may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Geo if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Geo Metro. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What Type of Oil Does My Geo Metro Need?

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1995 Geo Metro motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Geo has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the best motor oil for your 1995 Metro. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your Metro's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Metro by considering your driving style, and the number of miles on your odometer.
