How Often to Change 2007 Saturn Ion Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Saturn Ion’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know all about 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.”

Saturn recommends having your 2007 Saturn Ion’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Ion in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Ion may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Saturn recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Saturn Ion. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
