Signs You Need an Oil Change

---

You might be wondering, “How do I know if I need an oil change? What’s there to look for?” Of course, the timing and frequency depend on your vehicle, but there are always good rules of thumb to follow. We can provide those markers.

Most of the time, oil changes are conducted every 5,000 to 7,500 miles—again, depending on the car. However, a dashboard warning light may appear: the oil service light. Likewise, if you notice a knocking sound in the engine, an oil smell in the cabin, or heavy exhaust from the back of your vehicle, these are also key signs that you’re overdue.

The knocking in particular is evident, because oil functions as a lubricant. When your engine clatters, there’s not enough clean, fresh oil to keep it running smoothly—and that’s as good a reason as any to stop by for your service! You want to keep on top of it, to avoid the possibility of future problems.

What Does the Process Look Like?

---

So, when it comes down to it, what does the process of changing oil entail? On the whole, it’s a quick service, so you can expect to be finished in about 30 to 45 minutes, give or take.

Our certified technicians will start with popping the hood and taking a look at your container. They’ll remove the cap, where they’ll find what they’re looking for: Used, old oil is evidenced by its dark and dirty appearance, while fresh oil is amber-colored and almost clear (like apple juice, but don’t drink it!)

This oil is drained and replaced with the new, clean oil. Likewise, the old filter is replaced, to cover all your bases. After that, the cap is put back and screwed on, the hood is dropped, and we’ll run a full test of your system.

By making sure it’s operating smoothly, we can make sure you’ll be cruising down the road without the need for oil-related service—at least, not for a few months.
