It was true a generation ago, and it’s true today: if you want to get the most miles out of your vehicle, keep up on your oil change intervals.
Between the internal combustion process itself and the friction between moving parts, there’s a tremendous amount of heat generated by a vehicle’s engine. While Oil Change in Streetsboro, OHthat heat is unavoidable, it’s also the enemy of every engine. With no film of oil to lubricate the surfaces of moving parts and cut friction, the engine would soon seize, meaning that parts like bearings and pistons would get so hot they would fuse and weld themselves to each other. Motor oil provides that film of lubrication, but over time it becomes contaminated by carbon from the thousands of tiny explosions that happen in the cylinders, and by microscopic particles of metal from wear.
The detergents and additives in oil will suspend particles so they can be trapped in the oil filter, but over time the oil loses its lubricating properties, accelerating wear and allowing sludgy deposits to form around internal engine assemblies.
If you use conventional motor oils, the rule has long been to change your oil at 3,000-5,000 mile intervals. Synthetic motor oils, while more expensive, have better performance than conventional oils and can go for 7,500-10,000 miles between oil changes (always consult manufacturer’s recommendations for proper intervals).
