Oldsmobile recommends having your 1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Custom Cruiser may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile exhaust smoke gray or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to change my Custom Cruiser's oil filter when I get an oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
