Regular oil changes are important to prevent against sludge build-up that could lead to expensive repairs. Motor oil is essential for maintaining the proper functioning of all the moving parts inside your vehicle's motor. In addition, oil provides a necessary cooling and cleansing effect.
A dealership can install two types of oil. These include synthetic and conventional. Conventional oil is made from base oils. Synthetic motor oil is composed of laboratory-made oils making it more expensive.
A quick peak in your owner's manual will reveal which type of oil you should be using. Conventional oil is recommend for those who drive later-model vehicles for the purpose of their daily commute. Synthetic is more recommended for those who haul heavy loads and tow trailers. Synthetic oil offers more motor protection than the traditional conventional oil.
Make sure you are getting the right type of oil by contacting your local dealership to set up your next oil change.
