Oil changes may seem like a basic maintenance task, but they’re critical to the longevity and performance of your vehicle. Clean engine oil keeps moving parts lubricated, reduces wear and tear, cools down engine components, and prevents harmful buildup of dirt and sludge. Without regular oil changes, your engine can overheat, seize up, or wear down prematurely.

Over time, engine oil becomes dirty and loses its ability to effectively lubricate and protect the engine. If you wait too long between oil changes, that dirty oil can lead to increased friction, overheating, and even internal engine damage. That’s why it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s recommended intervals—typically every 5,000 to 7,500 kilometers depending on your vehicle and oil type.

Taking the time for regular oil changes isn’t just maintenance—it’s insurance against major engine failure. It’s one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to protect your investment and keep your car running strong for years.
