Why is it important to change the oil?
Every engine is built from many moving parts that have to be kept lubricated with oil. Over time, this oil begins to break down, and it picks up dirt, dust and debris. Dirty oil can't lubricate the engine properly. Sludge created by the debris and friction from the engine parts will damage the engine. Changing the oil regularly also protects the engine from oxidation.
How frequently do I need an oil change?
The answer to this question depends on what you drive, where you drive, and the type of driving you do. You'll find the manufacturer's recommended schedule in your owner's manual. If you're not sure when to bring your vehicle in for its next oil change, call the Burns Buick GMC Service Center. We'll let you know when to bring your car in, and we'll make an appointment for you.
Which kind of oil should I use?
This also depends on your vehicle. There are four basic types of motor oil:
- Synthetic Motor Oil: Synthetic oil is formulated from crude oil that's been chemically altered, and it can contain synthetic components. Synthetic oil offers more protection to the engine than conventional oil. It's more viscous, so it will guard against thermal breakdown, oxidation and sludge. Most cars can use synthetic oil, but it's wise to balance this type of oil's higher cost against its benefits. Synthetic oil is a good choice for drivers who use their cars in very hot or very cold weather. It's also a smart choice for trucks and SUVs that frequently tow and haul heavy loads.
- Synthetic Blend Motor Oil: This is a mixture of conventional oil and synthetic oil. It provides many of the benefits of synthetic oil, and it costs less.
- Conventional Motor Oil: Conventional oil is made from refined crude oil. It's available comes in different viscosity grades and quality levels. Conventional oil is appropriate for most cars that get normal use.
- High-Mileage Motor Oil: This type of motor oil was fabricated for late-model vehicles that have reached 75,000 miles or more on the odometer. It contains special additives that help prevent oil leaks and reduce burn-off.
