How Often to Change 1998 Isuzu Trooper Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1998 Isuzu Trooper? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Isuzu recommends changing your 1998 Trooper’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Trooper may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Isuzu if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Isuzu Trooper. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

What Type of Oil Does My Isuzu Trooper Need?

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1998 Isuzu Trooper motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Isuzu has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1998 Trooper. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your Trooper's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and 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 drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Trooper by taking into account your driving style, weather and road conditions,

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1998 Isuzu Trooper

  • What can low oil do to my Isuzu Trooper engine? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Trooper’s engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Isuzu Trooper oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Isuzu exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Isuzu Trooper oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Isuzu Trooper 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.
  • Why is my Isuzu Trooper oil light illuminated? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Isuzu Trooper 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.
  • Do I need to change my Trooper's oil filter when I get an oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Isuzu Trooper, 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.
