Getting an oil change is one of the most frequent maintenance procedures conducted when owning a car. A car engine uses oil to reduce friction. However, overtime, heat, friction and contamination can cause oil to lose the ability to flow, cool, clean and lubricate the vehicles engine. Changing your oil on a routine basis based on mileage or your manufacturers’ specifications is necessary to keep your car running smoothly.

Signs You Need an Oil Change
Most manufacturers recommend that car owners change the vehicles oil every 3,000 miles. Changing your oil is vital as a preventative maintenance measure. It will reduce costly maintenance problems and keep your vehicle running at optimal performance.

Other signs to look out for that will indicate your vehicle needs an oil change are leaks and puddles underneath your car. If your car is leaving large oil spots when you drive away, is an indication of engine trouble.

One method to check if you need an oil change is by doing a dip stick inspection. Check your oil levels by using the dip stick which will indicate not only your current oil level, but also the condition of the oil.

Another warning sign is the oil indicator light in your vehicle. When your check oil light comes on, you should quickly find out what the issue is. Ignoring the oil indicator light only will cause future problems.
