An oil change is a standard and relatively simple service that should be done regularly on your vehicle. The service consists of draining the motor oil out of your car through a drain plug beneath your car. Also, there is a motor oil filter that also needs to be replaced. The drain plug is then put back and tightened, and the vehicle is filled with the appropriate amount of oil. When using conventional oil, you will need to change it about every 3,000 miles.
Conventional motor oil is manufactured out of straight crude oil. This is in contrast to synthetic motor oil that is derived from chemical compounds and other synthetic materials. Conventional oil acts as an excellent lubricant for the moving parts inside your motor. Motor oil also works to help regulate the temperature of the engine. However, as your motor oil is used over time, it needs to be changed regularly.
Your vehicle needs regular oil changes due to the motor oil breaking down due to the engine’s heat and becoming dirty. Dirty oil does not lubricate the engine as it should. If dirty oil is left in the engine for too long, the engine could be damaged. Also, the motor can be damaged if the oil in the engine gets low. It is essential to change your oil regularly to avoid engine problems.
One of the best ways to make sure you change your oil on time is to change it regularly according to the maintenance schedule in your vehicle’s owner manual. However, it is a good practice to check your oil regularly. This can be done by checking the dipstick under the hood. The dipstick will show you the level of oil in your vehicle. And you can also check the color and smell of the oil by doing this. If the oil looks dirty or smells burnt, it is probably time to get your oil changed. If you ever smell burning oil from your vehicle or see oil spots under your car, then taking your vehicle in for an inspection or oil service is wise.
