Auto » Auto Maintenance » GETTING AN OIL CHANGE
An oil change removes contamination in your oil that could damage your engine and can help keep your vehicle in good running condition.
Check your vehicle owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommendations on how often you should be changing your oil.
Newer vehicles are often equipped with oil life monitoring sensors which tell you when it's time to change the oil, while some cars have a dashboard display that will count down oil life.
Vehicles that use synthetic oils have longer intervals between oil changes because synthetic oil doesn't break down as quickly as traditional fossil-based oil.
