Oil keeps your engine running newer, longer. Typically, oil and oil filter should be changed every 5,000-7,500 miles, according to manufacturer's recommendations and driving conditions. At a minimum oil should be changed twice each year. Factors like driving in cold climates, towing a trailer, or aggressive driving, can make it necessary to change your oil more often.

Bring your vehicle into Jody’s Automotive regularly to change the oil and check for other possible maintenance issues to keep your vehicle running smoothly.

During an oil change, the technician will drain out the old motor oil and replace it with new oil and a new filter.

What does oil do for my vehicle?

The main purpose of oil is to lubricate. Over time, it get contaminated, breaks down and is less effective at lubricating. Old oil, low oil pressure and lack of oil can all cause damage to your engine as the moving parts of the engine rub together and wear out.

If you regularly run low on oil, be sure to report it to your mechanic; you may have a leak or may be burning oil.
