Have you had a look at your car’s dipstick recently? Most drivers know how critical an oil change is to a well-running engine. If you’re not sure, here are 5 reasons why you should never delay an oil change.
It makes your engine run smoothly
Many of your engine’s parts, like pistons and valves, are continually moving as you cruise down the road. They need to be sufficiently lubricated to avoid being damaged. Oil provides this essential role. Over time, the heat from the engine breaks the oil down, and it becomes impure with dirt and debris, making it impossible to do its job.
Keep Your temperature down
Oil helps keep engine parts cool. Moving parts create friction, which in turn creates heat. Engine oil is the right solution to reduce friction and prevent your engine from overheating.
Oil Changes Removes Sludge
Every time you change your oil, your technician replaces the oil filter as well, taking particles and sludge from your engine’s systems. Dirt and dust are deadly to your vehicle, causing decay over time, decreasing the life of your vehicle’s motor. If you don’t change the oil regularly, it breaks down and turns to sludge. Keep your engine running at peak condition with clean oil.
You’ll See Better Gas Mileage
There are several factors that affect the fuel efficiency of your car, including the area where you live and your driving habits. A poorly maintained engine won’t perform at its best, leading to increased fuel use.
Your Car Will Last Longer
It’s a simple fact that owners who routinely change their oil can expect their vehicles to last longer than those who miss this important maintenance. Build-up from dirty oil makes your engine work harder, wearing out internal components faster.
An engine that works too hard will end up with a shorter life span, and a lower value if you plan to sell it or trade it in for something new. Having copies of these regular maintenance records increases its resale value. Reports state that regular oil changes are a better indication of proper upkeep than tune-ups and further state that this habit is a good sign that your car has been cared for.
Getting your oil changed regularly may seem like a hassle. However, it’s a necessary task if you want to hop in your car and go. If you’re not comfortable changing the oil yourself, book our experienced professional mechanic to do it for you at our dealership.
