Did you know?
The oil in your car’s engine has some very important jobs:
- it reduces friction between the mechanical parts, thus reducing wear and improving fuel efficiency
- it helps cool the engine by carrying heat away from moving parts to cooler parts of the engine
- it also cleans the engine – the oil picks up small bits of metal, dust, fuel contaminants and rust, then traps them in the oil filter, thus protecting the engine
Overtime oil deteriorates, that’s why even if you feel your car is running perfectly, to ensure no impurities build up and your car’s engine stays healthy it is important to have the oil changed regularly and on time.
