HOW CAN I KNOW IF I NEED TO CHANGE MY OIL?

• Smoke coming from the exhaust?

  A telltale sign that your oil needs to be changed is an excessive amount of dirty smoke coming from your exhaust. Excessive smoke may be caused by friction in the engine caused by old oil losing its ability to lubricate. Fast-moving engine components start to heat up owing to frictional forces in the absence of clean lubricating oil, which in turn results in smoke.

• Low oil level?

  This is one of the clearest signs that your oil needs to be changed. To check your oil, make sure you are parked on level ground, lift your hood, and use your dipstick to measure the level. This should be carried out once a week and after lengthy travels to make sure your automobile has enough oil.

• Car shaking whilst still?

  Shaking while the engine is idle is a sign that this is not happening since oil should be lubricating any moving parts and making the engine run smoothly.
  The oil that lubricates moving parts and prevents metal-on-metal rubbing together has either been depleted or has lost its lubricating properties, necessitating an oil change. It’s crucial to have your car evaluated if it shakes while it’s running.
