Benefits of Changing Oil

We hope all of our Avon and Indianapolis drivers know that regular oil changes are important for the maintenance of their vehicles, but do you know why your oil needs changing? The service team from Andy Mohr Toyota is here to help – before we break down the importance of your oil change, take a minute with our online service scheduler to set up your next trip to our service center.

The idea of making sense of what goes on under the hood of your car can seem intimidating, but we’ve found that the best way to explain the need for an oil change is to show you the benefits.

1. Better Gas Mileage

When your oil ages, it becomes a less effective lubricant, forcing your engine to work harder. A car that’s past its recommended service interval that receives a fresh change of oil will show a noticeable increase in fuel economy.

2. Less Harmful Emissions

Many older vehicles can end up burning oil, and burning old, dirty oil can lead to an excess of noxious emissions. Fresh oil is both less likely to burn and less likely to increase pollution.

3. Extended Engine Life

This is a more long-term benefit, but it’s one to consider before putting off your oil change. The harder your engine has to work to do its job, the sooner it wears out.

4. Protect Other Car Parts

Your engine oil runs through other parts of your vehicle, like the crankshaft and camshaft. This means that when you have dirty oil, it will affect the other parts of your car. The less friction you can cause to the other parts, the better your vehicle will operate
