Why Is Oil So Important?

Your oil works directly with the parts surrounding your engine to keep them properly lubricated no matter the temperature. The lubrication prevents the parts from rubbing together and breaking down.

Oil Change Types

Conventional Oil - Conventional oil is the most commonly known oil that follows the old rule of thumb to be changed at 3,000 miles (roughly every three months). Conventional oil is best for cars with older, simple engines or your first oil change as essentially, a break-in.

Semi-synthetic Oil - Semi-Synthetic oil is used in most modern cars. This oil is designed by each manufacturer to read their independent standards which is why it is always important to go to a certified service center. Oil changes are roughly around every 6,000 miles.

Synthetic Oil - Full-synthetic oil changes are for more performance cars. It is a higher-end oil that is purer and can handle the demands of the vehicle. We do not recommend using a lower grade oil as this can affect performance. Oil changes can wait as long as 9,000 miles!
