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.”
Your 1996 K2500 Suburban’s oil should be changed according to GMC’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your K2500 Suburban in the above table. No matter the mileage, your K2500 Suburban may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by GMC if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your GMC K2500 Suburban. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 1996 GMC K2500 Suburban motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. GMC has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1996 GMC K2500 Suburban vehicles. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your K2500 Suburban’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your K2500 Suburban by considering your driving style, and odometer.
