Your engine’s oil should be changed every 3,000-5,000 miles depending on what model and year of the vehicle you have. It is a good idea to check your oil levels before embarking on a long trip anywhere. A lubricated engine helps to prevent damage and unnecessary wear and tear on your vehicle. In addition, engine oil naturally breaks down over time and, in older vehicles, can leak out. Minding your oil levels helps keel friction and heat down as you drive down the road.
This is particularly important if your last oil change was a while ago, because intense weather conditions of any kind (wet, hot, or cold) can put extra demands on your oil and filter. Your oil works to keep your engine parts lubricated while the filter works to capture harmful debris, dirt, and metal fragments that have finagled their way into the oil system. A clean filter means more material gets picked up. More material getting picked up means cleaner oil. Cleaner oil means a healthier, happier engine!
