I am planning a 1,100-mile road trip in my 2019 Traverse. Should I get an oil change before the trip or wait until I get back?
Hey Teagan,
That sounds like an exciting road trip! For a 1,100-mile journey, it’s generally a good idea to get an oil change before you hit the road, especially if you’re close to your next scheduled maintenance.
Fresh oil can help ensure your engine runs smoothly and efficiently throughout the trip. Plus, it gives you peace of mind knowing your Traverse is in top shape.
Safe travels and enjoy your adventure!
It’s generally recommended to get an oil change before a long road trip. Fresh oil can help protect your engine, especially under the stress of extended driving conditions.
Check your owner’s manual for the exact recommended oil change intervals for your Traverse.
