What Happens if I Put Off an Oil Change?

While bringing your vehicle down to the dealership for a routine oil change may feel like just another thing to remember, there are many reasons it’s worth the trouble. Oil changes have many benefits and skipping your oil change can lead to issues and complications that you want to avoid. Depending on the oil your vehicle uses, you’ll want to schedule an oil change every 3,000-5,000 miles or 7,500-10,000 miles.

 

The oil in your vehicle helps to keep the engine cool and well-lubricated, so parts don’t grind or scratch during use. It also collects up the dirt and debris from the road, so it doesn’t harm the engine. Over time, oil can become saturated with dirt and will need to be replaced.

 

When we skip our routine oil changes, our vehicles won’t run as effectively. You may notice that the vehicle is less responsive and that you’re replacing parts more often than usual. This is because they’re grinding or wearing down more quickly without proper lubrication, and it can lead to expensive repairs and replacements over time.

 

You’ll also notice that the vehicle drives less efficiently, which means more time and money spent at the pump. If you plan to sell or trade in your vehicle down the line, a history of routine oil changes will help you get the vehicle’s value, and you’ll miss out if you skip your regular oil changes. The next ride may also be a little less smooth or comfortable with old oil.
