Your 1983 504’s oil should be changed according to Peugeot’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your 504 in the above table.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Peugeot 504.

1983 Peugeot 504 Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Peugeot 504 engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your 504’s engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Peugeot 504 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Peugeot 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 the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Peugeot 504 oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Peugeot 504 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.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Peugeot 504? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Peugeot 504 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 replace my 504’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Peugeot 504 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.
