2014 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my GMC Sierra 2500 HD motor oil level? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your GMC Sierra 2500 HD engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my GMC oil on my own? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my GMC Sierra 2500 HD spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get GMC Sierra 2500 HD oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs GMC Sierra 2500 HD oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is my GMC Sierra 2500 HD oil light illuminated? The oil change light in your GMC Sierra 2500 HD could be triggered by an overdue oil change.

  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my GMC Sierra 2500 HD? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your GMC Sierra 2500 HD every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
