When to Get an Oil Change

It's important to stay on top of regular routine maintenance services so you can keep your vehicle healthy and on the roads of New City, Nanuet, and Pearl River, New York. When it's time for your next oil change, you may be wondering when to bring your vehicle in-and also, where?

Luckily, here at Rockland CDJR, we want our drivers to be as informed as possible about their maintenance schedules and to feel confident about where to bring their vehicle for all their major and minor maintenance needs. That's why we've created this handy overview of when to get an oil change. It's also why we have a staff of highly trained technicians ready to help you with any and all services. Read on to learn more about us and how we can assist you!

When Should I Get My Next Oil Change?

Typically, you're going to want to get your oil changed about every 5,000 to 10,000 miles-that evens out to about once or twice a year for the average driver. Usually, you can get this service done during your yearly inspections because your vehicle will already be in the shop.

For those who drive in harsher conditions-through sand, snow, ice, or dust, etc.-you'll want to get your oil changed about every 3,000 miles.

Regardless, you'll want to refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for a more exact estimate.

Why Are Oil Changes Important?

Now that you know when it's time for your next oil change, we bet you're wondering why this process is so important. Basically, it will help keep all your vehicle's moving engine parts working properly.

Over time, your engine oil will get dirty and filled with debris, grit, and muck. So, it's important to switch it out for new, clean oil to keep all your engine parts properly lubricated.
