Questions, answered
Why is changing engine oil important?
Fresh oil reduces friction, helps control temperature, protects engine components and prevents sludge buildup — so the engine lasts longer.
What happens if I don't change my oil?
Increased wear, sludge buildup, reduced performance and, eventually, costly engine repairs.
Should I change the oil filter every time?
Yes. A new filter keeps the fresh oil clean. We fit MAHLE or VIC filters.
