Your Montero Sport 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 vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mitsubishi recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds.

1998 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Mitsubishi Montero Sport engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your Montero Sport’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil light illuminated? Your Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to change my Montero Sport's oil filter when I get an oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Mitsubishi Montero Sport oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
