It is a well known fact that your engine will last the lifetime of your vehicle if you change the oil on a regular basis. With variable valve timing incorporated into todays modern vehicles it is absolutely critical oil be changed at the recommended frequencies and the level is maintained at the full level at all times. Your engine’s oil acts as as a detergent suspending harmful dirt and acids from attacking friction surfaces while operating in a -25C to 120C environment. Eventually thermo-cycling breaks down your oil’s ability to lubricate internal engine components. If left too long sludge will form and internal passage ways will become varnished restricting oil flow. It is recommended that you change your oil every 5,000 km or every 3 months with conventional oils and every 10,000 km or every 6 months with synthetic oils.
