We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 1995 Defender 90’s oil should be changed according to Land Rover’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Land Rover-recommended oil change intervals, your Defender 90 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Land Rover Defender 90. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
