An oil change should be the primary maintenance task on any 2021 Chevrolet
Blazer, to prevent overheating. Motor oil transports away excess heat so no part of
the engine becomes overheated.
What type of oil you should put in your Chevrolet Blazer depends on several factors,
such as its climate, driving habits or age.
High Mileage Oil
People typically switch to high mileage motor oil once their vehicle reaches 75,000
miles; however, in certain instances it might be beneficial to switch earlier than that.
High mileage oil contains additives that begin working instantly to protect your
engine against wear deposits and sludge build-up, revitalize degraded seals to stop
leakage, and provide complete engine protection.
If your vehicle’s check engine light is illuminated and flashing, this could indicate
that its ignition system is misfiring – potentially leading to clogged spark plugs or
even irreparable damage to O2 sensors or ignition coils. Consider switching over to
this kind of motor oil.
Loss of power, rattling noises or odd smells from the engine bay could all indicate
that your 2021 Chevy Blazer needs an oil change – in any of these instances it would
be wise to visit an oil change center immediately for service.
Synthetic Oil
There are various types of motor oil available, but for optimal results it is wise to
follow your manufacturer’s recommendation. Synthetic motor oil usually offers
superior engine protection over mineral oils.
Synthetic oil changes may cost more, but their increased performance and
protection make them worth your while. Plus, they’re an effective way to extend the
lifespan of your 2021 Blazer!
Your engine runs on a thin layer of oil that keeps its pistons and moving parts from
colliding, while also carrying away any dirt build-up and protecting against corrosion.
If the Check Engine Light comes on in your Chevy Blazer vehicle, it is imperative that
it is taken immediately for service. Failing to do so could result in irreparable engine
damage as well as nullify any remaining warranties on it. A technician from Chevy
can help identify what exactly caused its illumination.
Conventional Oil
Conventional oil is composed of crude oil and tends to be cheaper than synthetic or
high-mileage oils. Conventional motor oil may work fine for your engine if driven
under normal conditions; however, it’s still wise to adhere to your owner’s manual’s
recommended oil change schedule to maintain your warranty coverage.
If your Chevy Blazer’s check engine light comes on, make sure the gas cap is tightly
closed before taking any further actions. Bring the vehicle into for service
immediately if the light flashes; this indicates an issue with either your engine or
another system in the vehicle that could require costly parts like new spark plugs and wires to fix.

Oil Filter
Your Chevy Blazer engine parts only come into direct contact through a thin layer of
motor oil, which provides protection from friction, heat and abrasion. Over time
however, as this layer breaks down it may become contaminated with dirt particles;
to prevent this happening regularly changing out your oil filter is recommended.
Check Engine light can be quite alarming to see on a Chevy Blazer, with various
symbols including “Check Engine,” a symbol representing an engine or even just
amber or red lights flashing amber/red respectively. Luckily, however, it typically
disappears once an issue or code that caused it has been addressed successfully and closed out.
Check engine light issues often stem from loose or damaged gas caps, which serve
multiple functions – including keeping potentially harmful gas fumes inside when not driving; sealing off your fuel system to maintain pressure in your tank to reduce fuel evaporation; and helping preserve pressure during storage to help avoid fuel evaporation or loss.
