Why Get an Oil Change?

Some people think it might be okay to wait if they see their low oil light come on – that it’s not like gas, the car isn’t going to stall or die if you don’t get your oil changed and filled immediately. But that’s actually just what can happen, and it can have long-lasting negative impacts on your vehicle as well.

The most common negative impact of not getting your oil changed is that your engine and its associated components will become too hot. This can cause the engine to warp and wear out and eventually die altogether. Getting your oil changed as soon as possible ensures that your engine will always be in a healthy condition and perform at its best functionality.

In addition, if your vehicle runs on old oil it will expel dangerous emissions, harming the environment and your vehicle as well. Old engine oil can have toxic components and debris, clogging the oil filter, and embedding that same debris and toxic components into the car itself. Do yourself a favor and get your oil changed as soon as the low oil light comes on – this means your car will be function and operate at the best possible performance for years to come.

How Often Should You Change Your Car’s Oil?

These days, most vehicles have a low oil light alert. And as soon as you see this light come on, you should get your oil changed immediately. Waiting any longer, as we said above, can have lasting negative impacts on your vehicle and cause irreversible damage to your car.

But if you want to plan ahead and have a gauge for how long you typically need to wait between oil changes, the rule of thumb is that older vehicles need an oil change every 3,000 miles or every three months, and newer vehicles need an oil change around every 5,000 miles or five months. If your vehicle is newer and manufactured in 2013 or later, it’s safe to assume that you won’t need another oil change until you hit that 5,000-mile mark. However, if your car was manufactured in the early 2000s or before that, then plan on getting your oil changed every 3,000 miles to ensure the best possible performance.

What Do We Do When We Change Your Oil?

At McCluskey Chevy, when we implement a quick oil change on your vehicle – we are removing the old, dirty oil from your vehicle, replacing the filter, and putting in new, fresh oil into your engine to make sure that your engine operates smoothly. Not only that, we also check to make sure other important components of your car are working smoothly – including your tire alignment, the tires themselves, and any other potential wear and tear your car may have. If we notice anything not operating as it should, we will immediately let you know and start working on it ASAP. We want to make sure that when you come in for an oil change that you also leave knowing we have checked all other components to make sure your vehicle is still running in the best possible condition for years to come.

How Does an Oil Change Benefit your Vehicle?

There are many ways a quick oil change benefits your vehicle. The most important benefit is that your engine continues to function as it should and isn’t impacted by dirty oil and debris. In addition, an oil change ensures that the engine and its moving parts are properly lubricated, meaning that the engine components operate smoothly with no undue friction or heat which can cause lasting damage to your engine.

Another great benefit is that new oil will increase your vehicle’s mileage – your engine won’t have to work as hard with new oil, meaning that your car can last longer on a single tank of gas. This means you’ll be saving money at the gas station, and you won’t have to worry about engine malfunction and the corresponding fees in the future. Finally, a quick oil change as soon as you see that oil light come on guarantees that your engine will last longer. If you don’t get your oil changed when you should, then your car is going to have lasting damage that may eventually be irreparable.
