There's nothing like the feeling of driving on the open road in Springfield, IL. Without regular oil changes, though, your trips on the open road could find you sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow. Though they're simple and easy, oil changes are often overlooked by vehicle owners, which puts their vehicle at risk of excess wear and tear that can cause a major repair bill down the road.
Don't let something so simple be your vehicles downfall. Instead, bring it by Landmark Ford Trucks East for a quick oil change at our express service lane.
Understanding Oil Changes
When an oil change is performed, the old oil is drained from the vehicle and new oil is added. At the same time, the oil filter, which catches small impurities that form in the oil as you drive around Chatham, IL, is changed out with a clean filter. Once everything is tightened, your vehicle is ready to go.
There are two basic types of oil that you can choose from when having your oil changed in the Auburn, IL area. Conventional oil is purified oil that has been pumped from the ground. It does a good job of providing essential protection for your engine, especially when you have your oil changed at the appropriate interval.
The other type of oil is synthetic oil, which is created by scientists to have superior lubricating properties to help reduce the amount of friction-caused heat that is created in your engine. Ultimately, the most important thing is that you're having your oil changed, though synthetic oil does tend to offer better protection for most engines.
