When Should I Schedule an Oil Change?
Many vehicles require an oil change around the time that your odometer reaches 5,000 to 7,500 miles. Every six months is also a good rule of thumb.
The ideal time and mileage can be found in your owner’s manual or by consulting with a service crew member. If your car uses synthetic oil, it can wait until 10,000 or even 15,000 miles.
Why Does My Car Need an Oil Change?
Let’s explain first what oil does for your automobile. The oil running through your car lubricates the engine and associated parts. This gives you a smooth performance as you drive around the Savannah metropolitan area.
After a while, the oil picks up lots of debris and dirt from the road, and the oil becomes soiled. The oil cannot slip through the parts as easily and must be changed.
You may detect a deficiency in performance if you wait too long past the proper intervals.
Do Oil Changes Take a Long Time?
Oil changes come easily to our service crew. They perform them daily and more than once a day, so they’re experts at quickly and efficiently administering them. They’ll remove the filter, dump out the old oil, and replace both.
Unless you add other services to your order, an oil change appointment will end within an hour. That way, you can get back on the road sooner and enjoy the rest of the day or get back to business.
Should I Just Add More Oil?
Adding more oil to your car may be tempting. It could also work in a pinch if you notice that you’re low on oil. While it can satisfy the need, though, it doesn’t replace the oil change.
If you add new oil to old oil, it creates a watery mixture of insoluble matter that cannot perform as well as only new oil. New oil starts out as gold and transparent. It easily slips through the engine and parts like silk. Oil that’s been in your car for a while may appear dark and sludgy. It cannot perform like it once did, so you’re better off scheduling an oil change.
