1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Oldsmobile oil on my own? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. 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 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of 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, blown piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who does Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • What does it mean if my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 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.
  • Does my Cutlass Supreme's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? You should replace your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
