Why Is an Oil Change Important?
Oil is important for your vehicle to run smoothly and get you where you want to go. It's one of the least expensive things you can do regularly to your car that will extend its life. However, it can be also hard to remember to do! Let us help you when it comes to your vehicle and its oil changes.
Regular oil changes are what your car engine must have to run smoothly. Clean oil lubricates the moving parts of your engine and helps to prevent corrosion or deposits from building up on them, ultimately shortening their life.
Our three types of oil that we typically use for oil changes are:
- Synthetic blend
- Conventional
- Fully synthetic

Oil Change Services Near the South Hill Area
One of the questions that come up a lot is "how often do I need an oil change service?" It is a good question and there are a few factors that you should consider before you decide. The first place to look is in the manual that came with the car. If you don't have one, just look it up online. Your vehicle manufacturer will give you a baseline recommendation for how frequently you want to get an oil change service.
Another thing to consider is the individual use of the vehicle itself. Do you travel long distances each day, or take frequent short trips. What type of driver are you? Do you like to get up and go or are you more likely to slowly get up to speed? The more stress you put on your engine, the more frequently you should get an oil change.
In general, 3,000 miles is a good rule of thumb. An oil change service is one of those things that you can't do too often. It's just good for your car. When in doubt, just give us a call and we can help determine the right schedule for you to be on.
