What can low oil do to my Mitsubishi Precis engine?

Can I change my Mitsubishi Precis oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.

Why is my Mitsubishi Precis spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?

How Often to Change 1993 Mitsubishi Precis Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1993 Mitsubishi Precis? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mitsubishi recommends changing your 1993 Precis’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Precis 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 notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mitsubishi recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mitsubishi Precis. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
