Do regular oil changes make a difference in my Oldsmobile?

Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your Oldsmobile Silhouette’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Do I need to follow Oldsmobile's recommended maintenance schedule?

Yes! Oldsmobile has written a maintenance schedule for your Silhouette. Since they made your vehicle, they know it well! Your manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule gives you solid guidelines for the frequency of specific services, and it can help you know when to replace certain parts before they cause secondary issues in your car.

How much information should I provide the technician about my Oldsmobile?

No one likes having to get repair service on their trusty Oldsmobile Silhouette, but you can help minimize the hassle. As soon as you notice something that doesn’t seem right in your vehicle, make a note of the date and what happens (and write it down so you don’t forget!). Are there new noises coming from the engine? Does something smell funny in your A/C vents? The more information you can give to your technician, the better! We’ll be able to find the root of the problem quickly and address it before it gets any worse.

Oldsmobile Radiator Repair

Your radiator is part of the cooling system. It helps regulate engine temperature. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, your chances of an overheated (and broken down) engine go way up. Keeping the radiator in working order is vital to long-term engine performance. To properly maintain your radiator, Oldsmobile recommends replacing coolant antifreeze in your 1996 Oldsmobile Silhouette at specific intervals. If you have coolant leaks under your car, an illuminated “low coolant” light, or a higher than usual engine temperature on your dashboard thermometer, these signs could indicate that your radiator needs service.
