Not sure how or where to get your Pontiac Firebird’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. 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.”
Pontiac recommends having your 2002 Pontiac Firebird’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Firebird may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds 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 Pontiac if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Pontiac Firebird. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2002 Pontiac Firebird motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Pontiac has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the best motor oil for your 2002 Firebird.
