Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1997 Mitsubishi Montero Sport? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just 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.
Mitsubishi recommends changing your 1997 Montero Sport’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Montero Sport in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Montero Sport may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine 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. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mitsubishi recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mitsubishi Montero Sport. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1997 Mitsubishi Montero Sport motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Mitsubishi has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1997 Montero Sport. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During your oil change service, a technician will change your Montero Sport's oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Montero Sport by considering your driving habits, and mileage.
