RV Generator Oil & Filter Change FAQ
How much does a generator oil change cost?
$75-$150 depending on the generator model and oil capacity. Includes oil, filter, and labor.
How often should I change the oil?
Every 150 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Per Onan's guidelines. In Florida, heavy users can hit 150 hours in one summer.
What type of oil does my generator use?
Depends on the model. Most Onan generators use SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30. We use the exact oil specified in your generator's manual.
Can I change the oil myself?
You can, but accessing the drain plug and filter on RV generators is often awkward. We have the tools and catch pans to do it cleanly at your location.
Do you check anything else during an oil change?
Yes. We visually inspect belts, hoses, and connections. We check coolant level (liquid-cooled models) and note any issues we spot.
What does metal in the oil mean?
Small amounts of fine particles are normal. Larger chips or excessive metallic content indicates internal wear that may need further investigation by a generator specialist.
