How Often to Get 1999 Toyota Solara Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1999 Toyota Solara? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. 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 1999 Solara’s oil should be changed according to Toyota’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Solara in the above table. Outside of Toyota-recommended oil change intervals, your Solara 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 see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Toyota recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Toyota Solara. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

1999 Toyota Solara Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Toyota Solara? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Toyota Solara engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Toyota Solara oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Toyota exhaust smoke gray 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, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who does Toyota Solara oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Toyota Solara 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.
  • Why is my Toyota Solara oil light illuminated? Your Toyota Solara oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my Solara's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Toyota Solara, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
