Getting regular oil changes is one of the most important things you can do to keep your vehicle running smoothly. At Island Honda, we understand the vital role oil changes play in maintaining your car's engine. Here are three key reasons why you shouldn't neglect this essential service:
1. Oil Changes Lubricate the Engine
The primary purpose of motor oil is to lubricate the many moving parts inside your engine. Over time, oil breaks down and becomes less effective at reducing friction and preventing wear and tear. Regular oil changes ensure that your engine is always properly lubricated with fresh, clean oil.
2. Oil Changes Remove Dirt and Debris
As oil circulates through the engine, it picks up dirt, debris, and other contaminants. This debris can build up and cause sludge to form, which restricts oil flow and causes engine components to work harder. When you get an oil change, the old, contaminated oil is drained out and replaced with new, clean oil.
3. Oil Changes Improve Fuel Economy and Performance
When your engine is properly lubricated and free of sludge and debris, it operates more efficiently. This can lead to better fuel economy, saving you money at the gas pump over time.
