Why Your Vehicle Needs Regular Oil Changes
Oil lubricates the moving parts in your vehicle’s engine to reduce heat and wear caused by friction. Changing the oil will extend your engine life and prevent internal corrosion, which is essential to a smooth-running engine.
The engine oil and filter must regularly be replaced according to OEM manufacturer's recommendations as it breaks down over time and reduces the ability to lubricate the engine effectively. Stop-and-go driving, short trips, and towing can increase the frequency of service intervals.
Part of every full-car service
At Rozema’s, we include an oil change with every full vehicle service, ensuring your car is ready for thousands of miles of driving. By following the manufacturer’s guidelines for the make, model, and age of your vehicle, our goal is to help you extend the life of your vehicle. You can also schedule an oil change as a standalone service.
Oil Changes at Rozema’s
High-quality oil
We use only the best quality engine oils, chosen to suit your vehicle’s needs. Typically there are three types of engine oil: conventional, semi-synthetic, and full synthetic. We are also happy to discuss any specific oil type preferences you may have.
Diesel Oil Changes
Just like gas-powered cars, diesel vehicles also need regular oil changes. However, diesel oil changes differ from standard oil changes in the type of oil used and in the frequency at which they’re performed. How often your diesel vehicle needs an oil change depends somewhat on your driving habits. For example, if you do a moderate amount of towing, experts recommend an oil change about every 5,000-7,000 miles. It’s always best to consult your owner’s manual for the best guidance on how often to replace the oil in your diesel vehicle. Whatever type of vehicle you drive, the experienced technicians at Rozema’s know how to take the best care of your engine.
