Oil Change in progressOil...Why should I worry about changing the oil in my car?
Some say, "Oil is the life blood" of your engine and the engine
is the heart of your car.
Your cars motor has many internal moving parts. It's these parts that are lubricated by
the motor oil in your car. Often the distance from one moving motor part and another
moving part is infinitely small and there is just a thin film of oil protecting these parts.
When a motor oil is dirty or low from lack of attention, this thin film of protection can break
down and that means your motor could break down as well.
Regular Oil Changes will keep engine parts protected and can
help prevent motor failures. In addition to changing the oil,
the oil filter must be changed as well. With today's new cars
this often involves removing a protective cover called a skid
pan or skid plate.
Having the proper tools ensures the job is done right
A good first step for any car or truck owner is to read his or hers’ owner's manual.
It will give you a guideline to help you understand what your mechanic already knows.
Mainly, proper intervals for oil changes on your vehicle. Proper replacement mileage for
wear parts on your motor and car's body. Such things as timing belt replacement, tire rotation
and replacement. Shocks and Brakes wear out eventually.
Proper tire inflation will reduce premature wear and can optimize gas mileage.
As you would expect a good mechanic will notice unusual wear or faulty parts and can alert you
to them and perhaps avoid an expensive repair. We check many things on your vehicle when we do
an oil change. Air filter, Wiper blades, tire pressure, brakes, all fluid levels, steering, wheel bearings...
you get the picture.
