Why Do I Need To Change The Oil In My Vehicle?

Benefits of an oil change extend beyond just cleaning the gunk out of your motor. The oil in your engine provides a lot of benefits, including:

  • Lubricates the metal parts of the engine
  • Helps to cool the engine down
  • Collects and removes engine sludge and small particles.

Performing an oil and filter change in your car or truck promotes the long-term health of your vehicle. It's always best to check your owner's manual for your vehicle's recommended service intervals. It is certainly worth it to bring your car in as a part of a regular maintenance schedule and keep the engine running smoothly. A small investment now can save you lots of money later and can give you an opportunity to see if your tires need to be rotated or if your brakes need service.

 What Kind Of Oil Should I Put In My Vehicle?

Every car has a recommended weight of oil that should be used in the engine. The technicians at our service centers will add the right kind of oil to your car or truck, but if you're curious to know what kind should be used, check your car manual or look on the oil cap under the hood.
