2022 GMC Canyon Oil Change Questions

  • Should I check my GMC Canyon motor oil level? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to GMC Canyon engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my GMC Canyon oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my GMC exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my GMC Canyon? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our GMC Canyon oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What does it mean if my GMC Canyon oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your GMC Canyon oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my Canyon's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your GMC Canyon, 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.
