Keep Your Engine in Tip-Top Shape with Regular Oil Changes

Oil changes are among those auto services so common that it can be easy to forget about or overlook them. However, while oil changes might count among the most basic items in your car's service schedule, they're also among the most crucial. Why? Oil changes play an important role in keeping your engine in excellent shape, which helps to improve its performance, efficiency, and longevity. Keeping up with regular oil changes yields great benefits, but neglecting this seemingly small service item can have costly consequences.

Why Do I Need an Oil Change?

• Keeps Engine Lubricated: Your engine's fast-moving components would wear down overheat quickly without the proper lubrication that oil provides, meaning that you could find yourself with dampened engine performance and pricey repairs if your engine doesn't have enough fresh, clean oil.
• Keeps Engine Cool: If your engine parts lack adequate lubrication, they create extra friction, which can lead to overheating. Regular oil changes at our service center near Albion help to combat excessive heat under the hood.
• Clears Contaminants and Sludge: Dirty oil can cause far more harm than good, which is why it's important to drain out old oil and replace it with fresh oil regularly.
• Improves Gas Mileage: Without proper lubrication, your engine has to work harder, which results in increased fuel consumption. Keeping up with oil changes can help your engine perform more efficiently.
• Helps Your Vehicle Last Longer: An overworked engine causes other parts of your vehicle to overwork as well. So, oil changes can improve your car's longevity by helping your engine run more smoothly.

We recommend scheduling an oil change at our service center near Elba every 5,000 to 7,500 miles to help your engine stay in peak condition. Schedule online or give us a call today to set an appointment.
