What's Included in a 2010 Cadillac Escalade ESV Oil ChangeAn oil change begins with draining the used engine oil from the 6.2-liter V8. The technician then refills the engine with the oil grade and capacity the manufacturer specifies and installs a new oil filter. After the replacement, the oil-life monitor is reset so the vehicle's maintenance tracking reflects the completed visit. Underhood fluid levels are also checked as part of the service.
Engine oil loses its additive package and its ability to carry heat and debris long before it necessarily looks dirty. That is why mileage and time matter alongside the oil-life reminder.
