What can low oil do to my GMC Savana 2500 engine?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and cause your GMC Savana 2500 engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.

Can I change my GMC Savana 2500 oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
