Changing Your Oil
It is vital that your vehicle is always running efficiently, and the best way to do so is by changing your oil at regular intervals. The reason for doing so is that the engine's constant need for oil eventually results in the oil's complete dissipation, at which point it can no longer provide effective lubrication. When you bring your car to our dealership for an oil change, the old oil is drained from the vehicle and new oil is pumped in. In a car engine, there are always elements rubbing against each other to create energy, a process that creates lots of friction. Oil is an essential component because it lubricates the instruments and prevents friction. By changing your oil every three months/every 3,000 - 5,000 miles, you ensure that consistent lubrication is provided to your engine's many parts.

What Happens if You Don't Change Your Oil?
If you don't change your oil regularly, you're risking serious problems down the road. Seeing as the average oil change costs $20 - $30, cost shouldn't be an obstacle when it comes to getting an oil change. Also, in addition to providing an oil change, the respected service team at Herb Gordon Volvo of Silver Spring offers other helpful services like hose inspections and tire-pressure checks. Old oil gets gummy, requiring the engine to work harder and harder just to achieve reasonable performance. The harder the engine works, the more fuel it burns, which means not changing your oil will cost you more money at the pump. This scenario is exacerbated if you drive a lot in stop-and-go traffic, which requires the engine to work harder than normal. Also, the farther you drive without changing your oil, the more friction is caused by engine parts rubbing together. The longer this goes on, the greater your chances of causing severe damage to your engine, which could ultimately result in the engine ceasing to work altogether.
