Pontiac recommends changing your 1997 Sunfire’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Sunfire in the above table. Outside of Pontiac-recommended oil change intervals, your Sunfire may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Pontiac recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Pontiac Sunfire. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
