What Is an Oil Change?

An oil change is a key part of the car service required for your vehicle to work its best. During an oil change, your vehicle’s engine oil is replaced with fresh, clean oil. Often, a full-service oil change includes the technician changing your oil filter and doing a check of other fluids like engine coolant, brake fluid, and more. 

How Often Do I Need an Oil Change?

Every vehicle is different, so the exact recommendation for oil changes should be confirmed with your car’s registration. Most cars need their oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. If you see your oil warning light turn on or notice low levels of oil under your hood, it’s best to bring it in for a once-over from the professionals. 

Why Are Regular Oil Changes Important?

Your car’s oil is crucial to your car’s performance and lasting power. By maintaining the right oil levels and keeping your oil clean, you are setting your vehicle up for success. Engine oil helps keep your engine’s components lubricated so driving is smooth, and friction is reduced. 
 
Without regular oil changes, you run the risk of damaging your vehicle due to the increased risk of overheating or sticking components. Regular oil changes do not have to break the bank, so be sure to take a look at our car service specials when you plan your oil change service.

What Kinds of Oil Are There?

There are quite a few options out there for engine oil including conventional oil, synthetic oil, and other specialty oils. To determine which type of oil is right for your vehicle, we recommend talking to one of our experienced service technicians who can give you an informed suggestion.
