Oil Change Services at Young Owosso
Oil and filter changes are basic maintenance requirements for any vehicles that burn fuel. Every vehicle has a factory-recommended maintenance schedule to protect the engine components and ensure lasting reliability and performance. Frequent oil changes are generally the foundation for good vehicle care. You can find your vehicle's unique recommended maintenance schedule and oil change intervals in the owner's manual. For more information about routine vehicle care, contact the Service Center at Young Owosso.
Why Oil Changes Are So Important
Gas-burning vehicles, including hybrids and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, need regular oil changes to keep all the parts lubricated and working smoothly. Over time, engine oil builds up sediments. It can become sluggish, or accumulated grit can cause extra friction in the engine components. Continuing to drive without an oil change will eventually lead to complete engine failure. Not keeping up with routine maintenance, like basic oil changes, will also void the warranty. Our service advisors can help you keep up with your vehicle needs and provide the right factory-recommended oil change intervals so you never miss important maintenance requirements.
When Does My Vehicle Need an Oil Change?
Newer vehicles don't need the oil changed as frequently as older models. The recommendation used to be every 3,000 miles, but newer cars can go twice as long thanks to efficient engine designs and advances in synthetic engine oil. Newer GM vehicles also have oil life indicators to give you a more specific window when oil changes are due and can save you money by only recommending service when needed. If you don't have the owner's manual handy, our service center experts can provide the right recommendations for your exact make and model. Here are the general guidelines for our new vehicle brands:
- Buick: 7,500 to 10,000 miles
- GMC: 7,500 miles or at least once a year
- Chevrolet: 7,000 to 10,000 miles
- Cadillac: Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles
Signs You Might Need an Oil Change
- Unusual Engine Noises
- Leaking Oil or Low Oil Level
