Why Does My Toyota Need an Oil Change?
If you have a gasoline-powered vehicle, it will require regular oil changes as part of its routine maintenance schedule. The oil in your car's engine does three main tasks: it cleans, cools, and lubricates the engine parts. While it performs these tasks, the oil will begin to break down. Over time, the oil will become too thin, sludgy, or dirty to be of any use. When this occurs, it's time to switch it out for new oil.
What Happens if I Don't Change My Car's Oil?
If you ignore the oil change warning light or know your car's oil is dirty and don't do anything about it, you risk doing extensive damage to the engine. Any engine repair or replacement is quite expensive and can take days to accomplish. It's much easier and less expensive to frequently change the oil and filter in the engine instead.
What Happens During an Oil Change?
When our technicians perform an oil change, they first drain the old oil and remove the dirty filter. Once clean, they inspect the area for damage and then put a new filter and new oil in the tank.
