Oil Changing Basics

As you may know, oil plays a crucial role in your car's engine, acting as a lubricant for the engine's additional parts. These parts help your vehicle move, but only if they are cared for.

You see, this oil can start to build up inside of the engine over time, which can then cause debris and dirt to encompass the engine. If this is neglected for long periods of time, it may lead to engine malfunctions or further vehicle damage.

Oil changes are a way to prevent and treat this buildup. By filtering out the old oil and replacing it with a clean batch, you can prolong the life of your engine.

 

Signs It's Time for an Oil Change

You won't feel the need to schedule an oil change appointment if you're unaware your vehicle's oil needs changing. How can I tell if it's time for an oil change, you may ask? Through looking out for certain behavioral and appearance changes, such as:

Unusual Sounds-Old engine oil loses some of its lubricating properties, which in turn can cause engine parts to rub together. If you hear abnormal noises from the engine, like grinding or knocking, it's probably time to schedule an oil change.

Burning Smell-Apart from keeping things lubricated, engine oil also works to regulate your engine's temperature and keep things cool. Old oil can't do this as effectively and may leave a lingering burning smell inside the cabin. When you notice this scent, bring your ride in for an oil change as soon as possible.

Illuminating Dashboard Light-This last one is pretty self-explanatory but can often get overlooked. If you see a "check engine" light on your vehicle's dashboard, we recommend heeding your vehicle's advice and making an oil change appointment.
