How Often Should You Change Your Oil?
When it comes to routine maintenance, you are likely aware that getting a regular oil change is one of the most important parts of keeping your vehicle in good shape. The reason why it is so important is that over time, your motor oil will break down, making it harder for your engine to transfer heat and cause a lot of wear on moving parts. How often you should get an oil change can vary depending on your vehicle. In the past, it was normal to get an oil change every 3,000 miles and is still the case for many vehicles. But with today’s modern lubricants, most companies now recommend getting your oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. We recommend consulting your vehicle’s owner’s manual or asking one of our technicians about recommended intervals for your vehicle.
