Oil change & maintenance FAQ
How often should I change my oil?
Follow your owner’s manual. Intervals vary by engine and oil type, and short trips, towing and dusty roads shorten them.
Do I need synthetic oil?
Use the oil grade your manual specifies. Many modern engines require synthetic or a synthetic blend. We can tell you what your car needs.
Do you change the filter every time?
Yes, a fresh oil filter normally goes in with every oil change so new oil is not mixed with dirty oil held in the old filter.
