Signs You Need an Oil Change

If your vehicle exhibits warning signs such as dark, dirty oil, a loud engine, or an oil smell inside the cabin, it’s likely time for an oil change. Other indicators include the oil change light on your dashboard or if it has been several months or a few thousand miles since your last oil change. Regular oil changes are crucial for maintaining engine lubrication, cooling, and overall health, ensuring your car runs smoothly and efficiently.

Are Overdue Oil Changes Dangerous?

Neglecting regular oil changes can lead to severe engine damage and failure. Without fresh oil, your engine’s moving parts might overheat and wear out faster, increasing the risk of a breakdown or even an accident due to engine lock-up.

Old, dirty oil reduces the efficiency of your engine, leading to poorer fuel economy, reduced power output, and an overall decrease in vehicle performance. Regular oil changes ensure your engine is protected and running at peak efficiency, saving you from costly repairs and maintenance down
