The importance of oil changes

8/1/2022

 
Picture
When you are driving, and you see that oil light you may be dreading bringing it into a shop to get it change. You might say "I can go a little while longer before getting it changed" then you forget about it and your engine is ruined. The oil in your car is one of the most important componetes to keeping your car "up and running". 
WHAT DOES ENGINE OIL DO?
To understand why we need to change our oil, first, we to understand exactly what your engine oil does. Every engine needs oil, but not just any oil. Every vehicle has its own standards and requirements when it comes to the type of oil you should be using. To put it simply, base oils are the backbone of the lubricant that ends up in your engine. They can be conventional, synthetic, a blend or high-mileage. Over time, your engine oil begins to wear out. This causes the oil to become increasingly less effective at lubricating your engine’s parts and absorbing heat.​
​ WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DONT CHANGE YOUR OIL?
If you don't change your oil your engine oil begins to break down and wear out. If your oil continues to run through your engine unchanged, you’ll begin to face a list of problems.
If you wait too long for an oil change, your smooth and clean oil will turn into dirty sludge
As car a owner you should change your oil about every 5,000 miles so that your oil doesn't change to sludge and your car can still run smoothly. 
SIGNS OF BAD ENGINE OIL.
  • Check Engine or Oil Change Light
  • Engine Noise and Knocking
  • Dark, Dirty Oil
  • Oil Smell Inside the Car
  • Exhaust Smoke
  • Excessive Mileage
'Big Box" shops and dealerships will give you a sub-standard oil change and charge you a fortune. At JAMHS Auto we will change your oil and put in the best oil for your car in an affordable, quick and effective way.
