Like most vehicles, your Chevy can drive between 7,500 and 10,000 miles before it needs an oil change. However, you need to be careful to keep up with your Chevy oil change service schedule. Going a little too long between oil changes won’t do too much damage, but putting it off for months will cause problems that only your Lafayette, LA Chevy dealer will be able to diagnose and repair.
3 Signs You Need a Chevy Oil Change
1. Loud Engine
Your loud engine is telling you that it’s time for an oil change. Your engine isn’t receiving enough lubrication, and this indicates a low oil level or low-quality oil. Your engine may also make grinding and clunking noises while it struggles to keep working without lubrication. Your engine is likely taking damage as it strains itself to work, so please make your way to a dealer now.
2. Burning Smell
A burning smell in your vehicle is often a sign that your engine is overheating. Although your cooling system does most of the work to cool your engine, your oil is responsible for keeping it cool, too. If your oil is low-quality, then your engine may overheat. Keep an eye on your temperature gauge, as it’ll start rising if your engine is overheating.
A burning smell can also be a sign of an oil leak, and your temperature gauge won’t climb when this happens. Both problems indicated by the odor should be considered an emergency, as they can both damage your vehicle.
3. Poor Oil Texture
Your oil should never be:
- Gritty
- Cloudy
- Watery
- Too dark to see through
If your oil has developed any of the characteristics above, then it’s time for an oil change.
