Getting an Oil Change is the Top-Needed Car Care Task

Getting an Oil Change is the Top-Needed Car Care Task

It’s no wonder that getting an oil change is something you find advertised on TV, in your email and mail box, on the TV, on the street corner, and by drive-up places that do nearly only oil changes for the bulk of their business without even requiring customers to make appointments: Getting an engine oil change complete with oil filter replacement quite possibly the #1 needed car repair.

It is common knowledge that engine oil should be checked before going on long trips and even more frequently for older cars or cars with oil leaks using a dipstick visible at the top of your engine compartment under your hood. Many also know that oil should be changed every 3,000 – 5,000 miles or up to 7,000 or 10,000 miles if using high-mileage engine oil from your last oil change. Generally, the standard oil that your particular vehicle takes according to manufacturer design is labeled on the dipstick itself, and you can top it off if you’re running a quart low and not due for an oil change for a while. If your car doesn’t already recommend a high-mileage engine oil, you’ll want to talk to a professional before trying a high-mileage oil to make sure it is compatible with your engine.

As you get close to the number of miles where you are needing an oil change, your engine oil starts to accumulate dirt and the filter is no longer able to filter as much of that out of the system. Hence, you need an oil change. Running a car with low or no oil is one of several things that can ruin an entire engine instantly. Don’t get complacent just because this is a common repair. Did you know that you can often get an oil change cheaper at an auto shop like Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center and get better diagnostics and routine maintenance help at the same time? If you get your engine oil change at the same place you purchased your tires, it’s an easy way to knock out both of these routine car maintenance needs on an overlapping schedule. Also, our professional auto mechanics will do the best job in town on your oil change. Give your car care the attention it deserves and let our service center take care of all your car’s needs, from oil changes to tire maintenance and more.
