Cadillac XT5 Service Intervals

How Often Should I Service My Cadillac XT5?

To make sure your car stays in top shape and that its parts don't wear out too soon, your vehicle will need to be inspected periodically by a certified Cadillac technician. Ideally, Cadillac XT5 service intervals start at 15,000 miles. The car will get checked continually at regular intervals to ensure that its parts are still working correctly and safe to drive. Although the Cadillac may follow a similar maintenance schedule as other vehicles on the road, exact Cadillac XT5 service intervals are determined by your owner's manual. You should always follow the schedule for your specific car for safety and performance.

15,000-Mile Service

The first recommended service interval for your Cadillac XT5 is 15,000 miles. At 15,000 miles, your car will be due for minimal service, but it is nevertheless essential to bring it in for an inspection. The two major services performed at this point are a tire inspection and an oil change. A Cadillac technician will look at the tires' condition and rotate them as needed to prevent uneven wear, which can cause safety issues and other problems with the tires. The oil will be replaced at 15,000 miles, and the oil filter may also be changed.

30,000-Mile Service

The Cadillac XT5 will have its oil changed again at 30,000 miles. The oil filter may also be replaced again. The car's tires will be checked and possibly rotated a second time. Additionally, the Cadillac's cabin's air filter will be changed when the car reaches 30,000 miles. A mechanic will perform a multi-point inspection to look at the belts, fluid levels, hoses, and exterior safety parts such as the lights.

60,000-Mile Service

Your Cadillac will be due for additional services at 60,000 miles. The spark plugs may be replaced at the 60,000-mile checkup. The spark plug wires will be looked at as well. The transmission fluid gets replaced if you drive an automatic, and the transmission's filter will likely be replaced as well. The evaporative control system gets checked at 60,000 miles, and the engine cooling system will be drained and refilled. If your car has a differential, its rear axle fluid gets replaced.

90,000-Mile Service

When your Cadillac reaches 90,000 miles, its engine accessory drive belts will be evaluated for damage such as cracks and fraying. The battery will likely be replaced if it hasn't been already. The engine and transmission fluid are replaced again. Your car also gets another oil change and tire rotation.
