Mercury recommends changing your 2000 Villager’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Villager 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, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.
