Whether you're looking to extend the life of your car, improve fuel efficiency, or maintain optimal engine performance, our oil and filter change service is designed to meet your needs.
The Importance of Regular Oil & Filter Changes
Engine oil is the lifeblood of your vehicle’s engine. It lubricates the moving parts, reducing friction and heat buildup. It also helps to clean the engine by trapping dirt, dust, and debris. As your engine operates, the oil breaks down over time and becomes contaminated, which can affect its ability to protect your engine. Regular oil and filter changes are critical to keeping your engine in top condition.
Here are a few key reasons why routine oil and filter changes are essential:
1. Prevents Engine Wear
Oil acts as a lubricant for the engine’s moving parts, preventing them from rubbing together. Over time, the oil loses its ability to lubricate and breaks down, leading to increased friction. This can cause excessive wear on vital engine components, reducing their lifespan. By changing your oil regularly, you’re providing your engine with the protection it needs to last.
2. Improves Engine Efficiency
Old or dirty oil can cause your engine to run inefficiently. The more contaminants that build up, the harder the engine has to work to perform basic functions. Regular oil changes help maintain proper engine efficiency, ensuring that your car runs smoothly and consumes less fuel.
3. Better Engine Cooling
The engine oil also helps dissipate heat away from the engine. When oil is old or degraded, it loses its cooling capacity. An oil change ensures that your engine stays cool, preventing it from overheating and suffering costly damage.
4. Maximizes Fuel Efficiency
Using fresh, clean oil reduces the friction within the engine, allowing it to operate more smoothly. This leads to improved fuel efficiency, which means you can save money on gas in the long run. A well-lubricated engine is more efficient and requires less energy to run.
5. Reduces Emissions
Over time, dirty oil can contribute to higher emissions, which can be harmful to the environment. Regular oil and filter changes help keep the engine clean and running efficiently, reducing the amount of pollutants emitted by your car.
6. Maintains Warranty Coverage
If your vehicle is still under warranty, performing regular maintenance, such as oil and filter changes, is often a requirement. Neglecting this maintenance could void your warranty, potentially leaving you responsible for expensive repairs.

What Happens During an Oil & Filter Change?
When you bring your vehicle to Advanced Auto Werkz for an oil and filter change, here’s what you can expect:
1. Drain the Old Oil
First, our technicians will safely drain the old, used oil from your vehicle. This step is crucial to ensure that the engine gets the full benefit of fresh, clean oil.
2. Replace the Oil Filter
Next, the oil filter is removed and replaced with a new one. The oil filter’s job is to trap contaminants, and a clogged or dirty filter can prevent the oil from circulating properly. Replacing the filter is an essential part of maintaining the oil system’s effectiveness.
3. Add Fresh Oil
We’ll then add the recommended amount and type of fresh oil to your engine. The correct oil viscosity is chosen based on your vehicle’s manufacturer recommendations, helping to ensure optimal engine performance.
4. Check Fluid Levels and Perform Inspections
After the oil change, we’ll check your vehicle’s other vital fluids, such as coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid. Additionally, we’ll conduct a brief visual inspection of the engine and its components, looking for any signs of potential issues.
How Often Should You Change Your Oil?
The frequency of oil changes depends on several factors, including the type of oil used, your vehicle’s make and model, and your driving habits. As a general rule of thumb:
- Conventional Oil: Every 3,000 to 5,000 miles
- Synthetic Oil: Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles
- High-performance or specialized oils: Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation
However, it’s always best to refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s specific recommendations. If you're unsure, our team at Advanced Auto Werkz can help you determine the right interval for your car.
