Every car has a manufacturer's recommended service schedule, which includes an oil change. Did you know an oil change is a vital part of your car's maintenance that can save you money on gas? Here's what an oil change does and how it can make your car more efficient.
- Changing the oil removes dust and debris that builds up over time. These particles create friction in the moving parts of the engine that make it work harder and use more gas.
- Oil lubricates the engine's internal parts so it works smoothly and efficiently. Old oil is thicker which reduces lubrication and makes the engine work harder.
- Clean motor oil helps keep your engine cool, which means you're less likely to experience engine failure or overheating. More importantly, if the engine stays cool while you're driving.
These all result in less fuel consumption which can add up to savings at the pump! Schedule an oil change appointment today.
