Why It's Important to Get a Regular Oil Change

Regular oil changes are essential because engine oil is the lifeblood of your combustion engine. Any engine that runs off fuel needs oil to keep all the moving parts lubricated and running smoothly. Over time, the engine oil builds up debris and degrades, which needs regular replacement. Every vehicle has a recommended schedule for routine oil changes to ensure you avoid excessive wear and tear from dirty or low oil. Our service technicians will ensure your vehicle gets the right oil and filter as specified by manufacturer recommendations.

How Often Do I
Need an Oil Change?

Every vehicle has a recommended maintenance schedule, which you can find in your owner's manual. Older vehicles typically need an oil change around every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Newer vehicles can go longer between oil changes, especially with more advanced synthetic oils. If you own a Chevy model from 2019 or newer, you'll likely be able to go 7,000 to 10,000 miles between oil changes. That's about once or twice yearly, depending on your driving habits.

For maintenance information on your specific vehicle, our experts in the Service Center can help you determine the right schedule to keep it in top condition.

The Best Types of Engine Oil for Your Vehicle

Most modern vehicles on Ohio roads will use either a blend or full synthetic oil. The best type of oil for your vehicle is also found in your owner's manual. When you schedule an oil change with our Service Center near I-270, you can feel confident that we will use the best formulation recommended for your vehicle. Here are the most common types of engine oil formulations available in our shop, along with the recommended usage:

Conventional Motor Oil

Conventional Motor Oil is made from refined crude oil and is best for light-duty and older vehicles. Before 2019, most vehicles used conventional motor oil, but advances in engine design and oil formulations made synthetics more prominent.

High-Mileage Engine Oil

Vehicles with more than 75,000 miles benefit from high-mileage formulations. High-mileage engine oil has special additives that help care for and extend the life of your older or high-mileage vehicle.

Synthetic Motor Oil

Most new vehicles work best with synthetic oil or a synthetic blend. Synthetic oils are the most advanced type of engine oil, and they are usually more expensive but last much longer. They are made from refined crude oil with additives and carrier oil to resist breakdown and improve engine life.

Synthetic Blends

Synthetic blend motor oil combines conventional and synthetic oils to deliver some of the benefits of synthetic oils at a lower price. Always check your vehicle specifications to see which engine oils are recommended.
