Oil Changes for 1999 Mercury Sable

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1999 Mercury Sable? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know all about 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 1999 Sable’s oil should be changed according to Mercury’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Sable in the above table. Outside of Mercury-recommended oil change intervals, your Sable may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercury recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mercury Sable. 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.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1999 Mercury Sable motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Mercury has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1999 Mercury Sable vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your Sable’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car 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 Sable by taking into account your driving preferences, and the number of miles on your odometer.
