The engine contains many complex and fast-moving parts. Engine oil is essential to prevent friction from wearing down and damaging these parts so the engine can properly drive thousands of miles around Corvallis, Oregon, and beyond. At our dealership, our certified technicians perform oil changes every day because it is an important part of keeping your Ford car, truck, or SUV in excellent condition. We will provide the expert service your Ford vehicle needs.

How Often Do I Need an Oil Change?

The owner's manual will tell you how often you need an oil change service for your Ford model. It will also specify the best type of oil that enables the engine to perform at its best when you're navigating Albany, Oregon roads. It is best to have an oil change at least once every six months or about every 7,500 to 10,000 miles to keep the engine performing optimally.

Benefits of an Oil Change

Oil circulates throughout the engine and keeps it clean by picking up dust and debris. The oil filter traps the dust and debris to keep the oil clean for as long as possible. This process reduces the risk of dirt building up in the engine to prevent engine problems. During an oil change service, one of our factory-trained technicians will examine and replace the oil filter. We'll perform this service once your oil is full of dirt and debris.

Another important function of engine oil is regulating the engine's temperature. As you drive around Eugene, the engine generates a lot of heat from the combustion process and the friction between the moving parts. This heat can damage the engine. However, the oil prevents heat-causing friction from occurring to keep the engine cool. As a result, you can reduce the chance of the engine overheating and avoid breakdowns on Newport streets.
