Why Regular Oil Changes Are So Important

Your car's oil works like blood in your body - it keeps everything running smooth when you drive on Pittsfield roads. Oil protects important engine parts like pistons, the crankshaft, valves, and timing chains that work together inside your engine. Over time, oil gets dirty and thick, and small pieces of metal and dirt build up in it, which can hurt your engine and make it wear out faster. Getting regular oil changes keeps your engine clean and protected so it lasts longer.

Today's CDJR cars and good used cars have fancy engines with turbo systems, direct injection, and other advanced parts that need special oil to work their best. Different car makers use different types of oil, and some need changes more often than others. Maine's cold winters and hot summers are hard on engine oil, so regular oil changes are extra important for Pittsfield car owners. Our mechanics know what kind of oil your CDJR needs, and we also work on all other car brands too.

Signs Your Car Needs an Oil Change

Watch for these warning signs that mean it's time to schedule your service appointment online for an oil change:

• Dashboard Warning Lights - If your oil light or check engine light comes on, you need service right away.
• Dark or Thick Oil - Clean oil looks clear and golden. Dirty oil looks black, thick, or has chunks in it.
• Engine Making Noise - If your engine sounds louder, knocks, or makes clicking sounds, it might need fresh oil.
• Burning Oil Smell - If you smell something burning, your oil might be leaking or getting too hot.
• Car Running Poorly - If your car feels sluggish or uses more gas than usual, old oil might be the problem.
• Blue Smoke from Exhaust - Blue smoke coming from your tailpipe means your engine is burning oil.

Don't ignore these warning signs! Taking care of oil problems quickly prevents big engine damage and keeps your car running well around Pittsfield. Most CDJR cars need oil changes every 5,000-7,500 miles with regular oil. If you use synthetic oil, you might be able to go 10,000 miles between changes. Maine's tough weather makes regular oil changes extra important for local drivers.

If you wait too long to change your oil, your engine could break and cost thousands of dollars to fix. Getting regular oil changes is much cheaper than buying a new engine. During every oil change, our mechanics also check other parts of your car to catch problems early before they get expensive.

How We Do Oil Changes

When you come to our oil change shop, we start by checking your engine with tools made for both CDJR cars and all other car brands. We drain out all the old oil, take off the old oil filter, and put on a new genuine Mopar filter that fits your engine perfectly. Then we add the exact type and amount of oil your car needs. Before you leave, we check all your other fluids, look at belts and hoses, and reset your car's oil change reminder.
