Title: How Important is Regularly Changing your Oil


1
How Important is Regularly Changing Your Oil?
2
You must be aware that oil changes are an
important aspect of regular car maintenance.
3
This is one of the first things most drivers
learn about car ownership. Without enough clean
engine oil, your car can sustain major damages.
4
Know the best practices for your own car and
practice them regularly to keep it running well.
5
Why is clean oil important?
6
Despite being one of the lower cost components on
your car, oil plays a vital role in the
performance and durability of your engine.
7
It serves three different functions that are-
1-Keeping engine components working smoothly
together by reducing friction
2-Drawing away heat
3-Preventing the buildup of residue and small
particles
8
Over time oil picks up metal particles and dirt,
which reduces its ability to lubricate and absorb
heat.
9
It gets darker, more viscous, and begins to look
sludgy. This can lead to worn out piston rings or
cause your engine to require an expensive
cleaning.
10
If you run out of oil, the pistons can seize,
and you will need to replace the whole engine.
11
How often should it be changed?
12
Many cars have a recommended time frame between
oil changes of every 3,000 to 5,000 miles under
normal driving conditions.
13
Some cars are able to go longer between changes,
and different fuel types can also affect the
frequency of changes.
14
Stressful driving conditions, such as short
trips, stop-and-go traffic, dusty roads, and
towing, can make it necessary to change it more
often.
15
It is best to check your owners manual or talk
to a repair shop to find out the best schedule
for your own car.
16
No matter what, make sure you have a way to keep
track of how many miles you have driven since
your last oil change.
17
Remember!
18
Engines are made up of many moving parts, which
need to be properly lubricated to avoid damage
and this is the main reason to change the oil in
the engine.
19
Over time, that oil breaks down and becomes
contaminated with dust, dirt and debris from the
engine as well as the environment.
20
Proactively changing a car's oil and filter will
help the engine continue to work at its best and
prevent costly repairs to drivers down the road.
