When Was Your Last Oil Change?

When was your last oil change? Think on that for a second, and then think on this information that we have for you on the subject of the Oil Change!

People often say that there is a specific time- or mileage-based interval that you need to strictly adhere to between oil changes. Usually, that’s 6 months or 3,000 miles. However, based on some variables, that interval is totally off:

• The age of your car

• The type of oil you use

• How many miles are on your car

• What conditions you usually drive in

• How hard you drive your car

So based on these, your oil changes might not need to be as frequent, or they might need to be more frequent. Only your dealer can really tell you, since they know exactly what your vehicle might need at every stage of its life.

You should also be checking your oil at least once a month to make sure your engine is healthy and that nothing catastrophic has happened that you didn’t know about. Other than that, make sure you get regular oil changes and remember to check your oil regularly! Stay in contact with your dealer and listen to their advice! You got this!!
