Why Oil Changes Are Important

Without oil, your engine just can’t run properly and will eventually suffer serious internal damage. Just a few of your engine oil’s responsibilities include:

  • Providing Lubrication
  • Circulating Cleaning Agents
  • Preventing Overheating
  • Removing Contaminants

Unfortunately, even the best oil breaks down and becomes contaminated over time, so regular changes are needed to keep the engine running properly.

How You Can Tell an Oil Change is Needed

It used to be that oil changes were recommended every 3,000 miles, but that figure is now overkill thanks to advances in oil and vehicle engineering. Most vehicles can now go anywhere from 5,000 to 7,500 miles before needing an oil change, and those changes are normally taken care of during routine service visits.

Just a few signs your oil may require changing sooner than expected include:

  • Persistent Check Engine or Change Oil Light 
  • Smell of Oil Within the Car 
  • Falling Fuel Efficiency
  • Rumbling or Knocking Sounds from the Engine
  • Visible Fumes from the Exhaust

You can also perform a visual inspection. Wait for your engine to cool, then pop the hood and pull the dipstick from the oil reservoir. The oil stuck to it should be a clear amber. If it appears discolored or dirty, it’s best to schedule servicing before continuing across Ann Arbor.
