The life of your engine’s oil depends on many factors. How is your engine being used on a daily basis? Is it driven hard and shut off immediately afterwards? Is it babied to and from work? Do you use your vehicle to tow? The best generic recommendation is to change your oil & filter every 3,000. However, depending on the age, and your use of the engine, you may want to change your oil sooner than later. It’s also a good habit to check your oil every time you fill your car with gasoline. An engine will not run long with no oil, so be sure it is at the proper level at all times.
If you notice your vehicle burning or leaking a lot of oil (the dipstick level goes down quickly when the car is driven), try to drive the car as little as possible and contact us immediately, serious damage can occur if you decide to drive the car with a low oil level.
