How Often to Change 1999 Plymouth Neon Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1999 Plymouth Neon? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. 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.”

Your 1999 Neon’s oil should be changed according to Plymouth’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Neon may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Plymouth recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Plymouth Neon. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1999 Plymouth Neon Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Plymouth Neon? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Plymouth Neon engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Plymouth Neon oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Plymouth Neon exhaust smoke grayish or blue? 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 the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Plymouth Neon? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Plymouth Neon oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Plymouth Neon oil light illuminated? Your Plymouth Neon oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Plymouth Neon? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Plymouth Neon every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
