When To Change Maruti/Suzuki Baleno’s Engine Oil?

Keeping an eye on your Baleno’s oil is crucial for its proper functioning. Here are some signs that might indicate it’s time for an oil change:

1. Oil Degradation:
Look out for signs like engine noise or decreased performance. These can be indicators that the oil is losing its effectiveness and needs replacing.

2. Illuminated Warning Lights: Check for any alerts in Maruti/Suzuki Baleno’s dashboard like low oil level, high engine oil temperature, or low engine oil pressure. These can signal the need for an engine oil change or top-up.

3. Leakage:
If you spot oil leaks under your vehicle or notice the oil levels dropping faster than normal, it’s wise to conduct an inspection. This might indicate the need for an oil change or topping up the oil level if it’s low.

4. Scheduled oil change:
Regular oil changes at specific intervals or mileage, whichever occurs first, are crucial. Following the guidelines outlined in the Maruti/Suzuki owner’s manual ensures timely and effective maintenance. Always refer to the manual for precise details on when to schedule your oil changes.
