Keeping your engine running smoothly is essential to your vehicle’s longevity, and one of the simplest yet most important maintenance tasks is regular oil changes. At Burt Brothers Tire & Service, we’re proud to offer top-tier oil change services featuring the industry-leading Valvoline™ family of motor oils. From conventional to synthetic options, we have the right oil for every vehicle and every driving need.
Why Are Regular Oil Changes Important?
Oil is the lifeblood of your engine, providing critical functions that keep it running at peak performance:
- Reduced Friction & Wear: Protects engine components by preventing metal-on-metal contact.
- Cleaning Power: Removes dirt, debris, and combustion deposits, preventing blockages.
- Heat Management: Absorbs and redistributes heat to prevent overheating.
- Corrosion Protection: Shields engine components from rust and corrosion.
Choosing the Right Oil for Your Vehicle
We offer a variety of motor oil options to meet your manufacturer’s recommendations:
- Conventional: Reliable protection for everyday driving.
- Synthetic Blend: Enhanced performance and protection.
- Full Synthetic: Maximum protection, fuel efficiency, and performance.
We provide oil changes for gasoline and diesel vehicles, ensuring comprehensive care for every customer.
When to Change Your Oil
Oil changes are typically needed every 3,000 to 7,500 miles or 3-6 months, depending on your vehicle. Regular oil checks can also help you stay ahead of potential engine issues:
- Oil Color: Fresh oil is yellowish and translucent; dirty oil needs changing.
- Dipstick Check: Low oil levels can lead to engine damage.
- Unusual Noises: Increased engine noise may indicate poor lubrication.
- Dashboard Light & Windshield Sticker: Your windshield sticker provides the mileage and date for your next oil change.
Getting an Oil Flush
You may want to consider getting an oil flush if your car has high mileage, experiences unusual engine noises, or if you suspect significant sludge buildup.
An oil flush is designed to remove sludge and deposits from the engine that regular oil changes might miss, improving performance and longevity. It works by adding a specialized cleaning fluid to the engine oil, allowing it to circulate for a short time. Afterward, the old oil and cleaning fluid are drained together, followed by fresh oil and a new filter.
