At Royalty Tire in Moorestown, NJ, we get this question a lot: "Do I really need to change my oil that often?" The short answer is, one of the simplest and most important things you can do to keep your car running strong.
What Does Motor Oil Actually Do?
Reduces friction between moving parts
Cools engine components
Cleans out dirt and deposits
Prevents rust and corrosion
Seals small gaps inside the engine
But over time, oil breaks down and gets contaminated with dust, moisture, and even metal shavings. When that happens your engine stops doing its job, and your engine starts to wear down from the inside out.
What Happens If You Skip Oil Changes?
Decreased fuel efficiency
Overheating
Sludge buildup
Costly engine damage
Complete engine failure
A $100 oil change can you save you thousands in damages and repairs
How Often Should You Change Your Oil?
Changing your oil all depends on your car and how much you drive, but generally this is a good rule of thumb:
Conventional oil: Every 3,000 - 5,000 miles
Synthetic oil: Every 6,000 - 8,000 miles
Though, it's always good to get in a habit of checking it often and frequently changing it is all depending on the person. Some like to stick true to every 3,000 miles no matter if it's conventional or synthetic.
