Your 2009 Grand Marquis’s oil should be changed according to Mercury’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Grand Marquis in the above table. Your Grand Marquis may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knock knock knock 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 Mercury if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mercury Grand Marquis. 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.

2009 Mercury Grand Marquis Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Mercury Grand Marquis? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Mercury Grand Marquis engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercury 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. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mercury Grand Marquis 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 caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mercury Grand Marquis? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mercury Grand Marquis oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Mercury Grand Marquis to illuminate? Your Mercury Grand Marquis oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my Grand Marquis's oil filter when I get an oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Mercury Grand Marquis 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?
