background
The average Cadillac oil change costs between $130 to $150 depending on the model you drive, the oil you use, and your local labor costs.
  • Your luxury vehicle’s oil change is going to cost more than for other vehicles because the service requires high-end products and experienced service teams.
  • You should typically change your Cadillac’s oil every 7,500 to 10,000 miles if using a fully synthetic or synthetic blend.
  • Cadillac recommends getting air filter replacements, tire rotations, and multi-point inspections at the time of an oil change, which could affect your costs.

Average Cadillac oil change costs

The average Cadillac oil and filter change costs around $130 to $150. However, there are plenty of factors that can increase or decrease your price.
Your Cadillac model: Here’s a comparison of how much you can expect to pay for an oil change between two popular Cadillac models—the
Cadillac CTS
and the
Cadillac XT5
—for example.
Model
Repairpal estimate for an oil change
CTS
$137 to $151
XT5
$136 to $149
Other than model type, here are some factors that can change your oil change cost:
  • Cadillac service center versus local mechanic: A Cadillac service department can provide specialized care from a team of Cadillac experts. However, their oil change prices will cost more than heading to your local Jiffy Lube or auto service shop.
  • Type of engine oil: There are many possible brands and viscosities of motor oil. Synthetic oil has a longer oil life, but it’s typically pricier than conventional oil.
  • Oil filter: Oil filters keep your oil clean while it circulates through your engine. You may need to get your oil filter changed when you go in for an oil change, which can drive up the price.
