Why You Need to Change Your Oil 

Changing your oil keeps your car and engine healthy. This is because the oil in your vehicle is meant to protect the engine and all its most delicate parts from heat, friction, and impurities. 

Because of the many jobs it has, it doesn't last forever. Oil loses its efficiency over time and can no longer protect the engine. An oil change is actually one of the most common services a car needs.

When Do I Need an Oil Change?

Many drivers figure out when they need their oil changed based on a specific mileage, usually around 5,000 to 7,5000 miles, but even if you haven't been driving as often recently, your oil will still need to be changed.

Many of us have been driving fewer miles due to the COVID-19 pandemic. If your car has been sitting around more, that oil you've been using might not be in the best condition. Even as oil sits, it degrades and becomes less viscous with time. This is why we encourage oil changes every six months.

As more things open up and summer road trips become a possibility, you need to make sure that your vehicle is ready. An oil change will keep your engine protected and your vehicle operating at peak performance levels.
