1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Oil Change Service

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of 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.”

Your 1997 Cutlass’s oil should be changed according to Oldsmobile’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Cutlass in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Cutlass may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Oldsmobile recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Oldsmobile Cutlass. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Oldsmobile has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass vehicles. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, maintain proper engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During an oil change, an auto technician will change your Cutlass’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s 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 Cutlass by considering your driving style, and mileage.
