1990 Suzuki Samurai Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Suzuki Samurai engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to Suzuki Samurai engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Suzuki Samurai oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Suzuki Samurai exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Suzuki Samurai oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Suzuki Samurai oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Suzuki Samurai to illuminate? Your Suzuki Samurai 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.
  • Does my Samurai's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Suzuki Samurai every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
