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.”
Your 1997 SC1’s oil should be changed according to Saturn’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your SC1 in the above table. No matter the mileage, your SC1 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Saturn recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Saturn SC1. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
