Oil Change in Peabody, Massachusetts
Preserve your Car
Oil Matters
An oil change is one of the most important maintenance options you should do as part of your regular scheduled maintenance for your car, truck or SUV. Motor oil provides proper lubrication for all your engine’s moving parts and helps dissipate the heat created by normal use. It also helps remove dirt and debris from the system that can cause your engine to run less efficiently.
Signs You Need an Oil Change
Checking your oil level with the dipstick should be part of your normal, at-home vehicle maintenance. Still, if you experience increased engine noise or a ticking sound when the engine is running, any indicator or warning lights are lit on your dashboard, or the oil on the dipstick is dark or dirty, it’s time for an oil change. Depending on your driving pattern, road conditions, and environment, the frequency of these oil change services may vary, but you should always start with your owner’s manual first. This will tell you the manufacturer’s recommended schedule and the type of oil recommended for your specific vehicle. However, if your vehicle is older, a trusted automotive repair shop, like FasTrack Automotive will be able to tell you if there are any updates to those requirements for your specific year, make and model due to the ever-changing oil technology.
Let Us Do the Dirty Work
Can you perform an oil change? Absolutely, but if you’re not knowledgeable or uninterested in the potential mess of removing and safely disposing of old oil, you should take your vehicle to a professional. The technicians at FasTrack Automotive know exactly how to take care of your vehicle and can spot any additional issues that may have been caused by driving with too little or dirty oil in your vehicle.
