FAQ oil change
How often do I need an oil change?
It used to be customary to change the oil every 3,000 miles, but thanks to the advancements in lubricants, most engines nowadays have suggested oil change intervals of 5,000 to 7,500 miles. And if your car's engine requires full-synthetic motor oil, it's possible to extend that interval to a remarkable 15,000 miles between services!
Is it bad if I do not get an oil change?
If you go long enough without an oil change, it could cost you a car. Once the motor oil becomes sludge, it no longer removes heat from the engine. This can lead to a complete engine shutdown that will require a brand new engine
Do all cars take the same oil?
No, engines may perform the same function but they're designed individually to meet the needs of individual cars. In order to do that job properly, they need engine oils with certain properties that may be counter-productive to other engines.
What is the difference between conventional and synthetic oil?
Synthetics have some advantages over conventional motor oil. They're designed to be more effective at: resisting oil breakdown, which makes it last longer than conventional oil and withstanding higher temperatures than conventional oil, which helps keep engines running longer.
