Your 1993 Trans Sport’s oil should be changed according to Pontiac’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Trans Sport in the above table. Outside of Pontiac-recommended oil change intervals, your Trans Sport may need an oil change if your check engine 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.

1993 Pontiac Trans Sport Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Pontiac Trans Sport engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and eventually lead to Pontiac Trans Sport engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Pontiac oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Pontiac exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Pontiac Trans Sport oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Pontiac Trans Sport oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Pontiac Trans Sport to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Pontiac Trans Sport 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 Trans Sport’s oil filter when changing my oil? You should replace your Pontiac Trans Sport 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.
