1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette Oil Change

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Oldsmobile recommends changing your 1998 Silhouette’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Silhouette 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 notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Oldsmobile if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Oldsmobile Silhouette. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Oldsmobile Silhouette. Oldsmobile has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. During an oil change, an auto technician will change your Silhouette’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Silhouette by considering your driving habits, and the number of miles on your odometer.
