How Often to Get 2004 Lincoln LS Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2004 Lincoln LS? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond 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.”

Lincoln recommends changing your 2004 LS’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your LS may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Lincoln if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Lincoln LS. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

What’s the Right Type of Oil for 2004 Lincoln LS?

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2004 Lincoln LS motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Lincoln has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 2004 Lincoln LS vehicles. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During your oil change service, a technician will change your LS's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your LS by taking into account your driving preferences, and the number of miles on your odometer.
