Learn More About Your Toyota Oil And Filter Change

Oil changes are among the most common and most important routine maintenance services for your vehicle. Not only do oil changes keep your engine running strong, but they also allow for better gas mileage throughout any Malvern or Devon area drive.

Why Does My Toyota Need An Oil Change?

Whether you're driving a new Toyota Tacoma around Downingtown or you're behind the wheel of an older version of the Toyota Camry, you'll want to make sure that its oil and filter are changed regularly. The engine's oil lubricates, cleans, and cools the engine, keeping it safe from damage while ensuring it runs as it should. With use, the oil will become either too thin, sludgy, or dirty and won't work as it should. If left unchanged, your engine will eventually suffer from a more serious engine repair issue.

When Should I Get My Car's Oil Changed?

While every car, truck, SUV, and van are different, most newer models have an oil change timeline of 7,500 to 10,000 miles, or once a year. We recommend checking in your owner's manual to discover your car's timeline and, if the oil change warning light appears, don't ignore it!

How Long Does An Oil Change Take?

The timeline and price of an oil change vary depending on the type of car you have and the type of oil used. Synthetic oil is more expensive but tends to last longer. Conventional oil is cheaper but needs to be changed more often. Both options should be completed in a similar amount of time, though, anywhere between 20 to 40 minutes.
