The health of your vehicle is almost as important as your bodily health because the safety of you and your passengers depends on the condition of your car. Routine oil changes are vital to your vehicle’s health. Over the last decade, improvements in oil and engine technologies helped Oswego drivers to go much longer in oil change frequency. Most new Ford models today have an oil change frequency between 7,500 and 10,000 miles. Still, always check your owner’s manual for specifics for your make and model, and if you have questions, contact River View Ford.
How often should you change your oil? Some cars have a higher oil change frequency than others and vice versa, but the general rule of thumb is to change your oil every 7,500-10,000 miles. If your drives around Naperville or Montgomery regularly include any of the types of driving listed below, you need to adjust your oil change frequencies accordingly:
Would you like some oil change tips? If so, read on, and if you have questions about auto care, call the experts in the service center at River View Ford.
