Oil reduces friction between moving parts, which lessens the heat that is generated from movement. Oil also is responsible for helping to keep your engine clean because it traps dirt and debris like dust and tiny metal fragments, which are then moved into the oil filter. The oil filter is responsible for filtering all these particles out, keeping them from being re-circulated throughout your engine.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU CHANGE YOUR OIL

The best answer lies in your owner’s manual. Your manual contains manufacturer recommendations to extend the life of your vehicle. Many suggestions say to change your oil every 3,000 to 6,000 miles, but with technological advances today, some models may perform best if the oil is changed from 7,500 to 10,000 miles. To ensure that your vehicle gets the care it needs, be sure you check your owner’s manual for the best maintenance advice for your vehicle. It is important to remember also that an oil change is not just about mileage. Even if you do not drive your vehicle very often, you still need to get regular oil changes because in time your oil will lose some of its ability to protect your engine.

While your main reason to get the oil changed is to extend the life of your engine, it is also an opportunity to have other maintenance done. Check tire pressure, top off fluids such as brake fluid, transmission fluid, anti-freeze, and windshield washer fluid. It is also a good time to request an engine checkup to ensure there are no impending problems that may need to be addressed with your vehicle.
