Oil Changes: Keeping Your Engine Happy

It's your car's engine that bears the brunt of our beautiful region's unpredictable weather and rough terrain. No matter what kind of adventures you throw at it, we know your vehicle needs to be ready to respond. Whether you travel primarily for work or pleasure, the expert parts and service team here at Lithia Nissan of Frenso knows that keeping up with a regular schedule of oil changes is crucial to the long-term safety, performance and reliability of your car or truck no matter what it's make or model. No matter what you drive, a well-oiled engine is a happy engine.

When you have your oil switched out at its regularly scheduled intervals by efficient and professional team of parts and service experts, you help reduce engine friction, keeping it running cool in every season. Oil also acts as a cleansing agent for the internal components, keeping them clean and free of debris so they can operate smoothly. Switching out your engine's oil when the manufacturer recommends also prevents the unsightly buildup of residues in your engine's crankcase, camshafts, and valves, which helps to stave off premature breakdown, corrosion and engine failure.

When changing your oil, we will also change the oil filter. The filter catches the majority of the dirt and debris that makes its way into the oil, so reusing the old filter risks reintroducing contaminants into the system. Additionally, the new filter also allows the oil to flow freely to all of the moving parts.
