Oil is an essential lubricant in your engine which allows metal parts to slide against other metal parts without scraping and damaging them. Without oil, the metal-on-metal friction would cause a heat buildup which would result in the metals melting together. Over time your oil undergoes thermal breakdown due to these high operating temperatures. Of course, once the thermal breakdown takes place the oil becomes ineffective and then the heat buildup begins. Consequently, this is why we need to change the oil in all vehicles on a regular schedule. As a result, a simple and inexpensive oil change can save you from replacing the engine.
We use regular oils and synthetic motor oils. Plus, there is a specific type of oil recommended by the manufacturer of every vehicle. Naturally, you can count on Jumbo Auto Repair in Hollywood Florida to use the right oil for your vehicle.
The old rule was, have oil changed every 3,000 miles or three months. Plus, with the motor oil we used 20 years ago, that was a good recommendation. As a result, people got their vehicle’s oil changed four times a year. However, service intervals today can be much longer than 3,000 miles. For instance, many vehicles can safely go from 5,000 to 10,000 miles before an oil change is necessary.
As a result, newly developed synthetic oils and blends certain vehicles can go much longer between oil changes. Additionally, dispersants, detergents, and rust inhibitors are some of the additives that make the oil last longer. Plus, they help your vehicle to run better and to burn less fuel. Stop by our Hollywood auto repair shop today and we’ll get the right oil and filter for your vehicle’s oil change.
