Your 2009 xD’s oil should be changed according to Scion’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your xD may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Scion xD. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2009 Scion xD Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Scion xD engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your xD’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Scion xD oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Scion xD spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Scion xD oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Scion xD oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is my Scion xD oil light illuminated? Your Scion xD oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Scion xD? It's recommended that you replace your Scion xD oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
