The most important service you can perform to maintain your vehicle is an automotive oil change. Engine oil is the life blood of your vehicle, and if changed on a regular three thousand mile interval, it will keep your automobile's engine running for years. While oil keeps things lubricated, the oil filter keeps out the impurities, so the oil filter needs to be changed at every interval. If you plan to perform an oil change on your own, you will need the correct auto repair manual. Always consult your repair manual for proper oil quantity, oil weight, and the proper oil filter when performing an automotive oil change.

Most automotive manufacturers will suggest that you do an automotive oil change between five thousand and seventy five hundred miles, but I would only recommend that interval for synthetic oil. The maintenance schedules that they publish have two options, standard and extreme. Most consumers think that the standard schedule is fine no matter where you live, but 75% of the world lives in the extreme, hot, cold, city driving, etc! Extreme heat as well as extreme cold will break down engine oil viscosity and cause it to lose its lubricating properties. So lets stick to an automotive oil change every three thousand miles.

Donald Buske

I have over 25 years of automotive repair experience. I know quite alot about everything that
has to do with your auto. I am ASE certified as well as GM certified. I am originally from
Wisconsin, born and raised, lived there for 38 years. I've spent many years in the summer-humid
/winter-icy/snowy climate and have dealt with not only repair conditions there but also how to
drive properly in those conditions. Fuel economy is probably the most important element to saving
money today, and how you drive or how your vehicle performs plays a big part in that. I now have
lived in Phoenix for the past 6 years, in the middle of the desert where it reaches up to 115
degrees on a summer day. I've seen it all as far as vehicle maintenance and care goes and can
help with any problem by email or by visiting my website at http://www.your-auto-repair-help.com/automotive-oil-change.html
