Monday Maitenance Tip!

Oil is the lifeblood of all engines. Through the last several decades, as engines have changed so has the required timing of oil changes. What used to be a standard 3,000 mile oil change is today 5,000 miles or more, depending on the make, model and engine in your vehicle. (Again, consult your owner's manual for details). Also, there are different grades, viscosity or weight of oil and in some diesel engines they require more oil than gas engines. There is research that shows using synthetic oil can reduce fuel consumption, extend engine life and reduce carbon emissions. Consider using it at your next oil change or ask your dealer if it could be used in your particular vehicle.
