HOW THE LUBE, OIL & FILTER CHANGE WORKS

Over time, as oil becomes saturated with contaminants, excess particles are left behind in the engine, where they can form deposits and cause significant wear to the engine. Oversaturated oil loses its lubrication, which will eventually lead to an overworking engine, excess heat, and engine failure. 

Excessive heat can also lead to thermal breakdown in your engine oil, causing a change in the oil’s viscosity as well as resulting in decreased oil flow. Similarly, dirty oil flows more slowly, causing the engine to work harder. This leads to increased engine wear. 

WHAT CAUSES THE NEED TO CHANGE LUBE, OIL & FILTERS

Continuous oil changes are basic maintenance for your car. Think of it like when you go to the doctors for a check-up. There is nothing wrong with you at that moment, but visiting your doctor on a regular basis helps you stay healthy for longer. They will help you make healthy choices, educating on areas where you need to work. Perhaps helping you steer clear of potential threatening illnesses.

The same can be said for your vehicle. An oil change allows your car to stay healthy and functional for longer. It will help you steer clear of more expensive repairs that could result if an oil change is ignored. 

HOW TO KNOW IF YOUR LUBE, OIL OR FILTER SYSTEMS NEED CHANGING 

Most vehicles have an indicator light that illuminates when it is time for an oil change. However, manufacturers do advise a certain amount of miles before an oil change is due. 

In the past, oil changes were recommended for every 3,000 miles. Now, with modern lubricants, oil changes are recommended for every 5,000-7,000 miles. Morgan's Auto Repair recommends service at 5,000 miles to help you keep your vehicle driving for as long as possible.
