**HOW THE LUBE, OIL & FILTER CHANGE OPERATES** 

As oil ages, it becomes saturated with contaminants and leaves behind excess particles in the engine. This buildup can lead to deposits that cause significant wear over time. When oil becomes oversaturated, its lubrication properties diminish, resulting in an overworked engine, increasing temperatures, and, ultimately, engine failure. 

Excessive heat can also cause thermal breakdown of your engine oil, altering its viscosity and reducing oil flow. Likewise, dirty oil tends to flow more slowly, forcing the engine to exert more effort, which accelerates engine wear.   

**WHAT NECESSITATES A CHANGE OF LUBE, OIL & FILTERS** 

Regular oil changes are an essential aspect of car maintenance, akin to visiting the doctor for an annual check-up. Even if you feel fine, regular appointments ensure your long-term health, permitting proactive choices and education on areas needing attention, ultimately helping you avoid potential health risks. 

Similarly, timely oil changes keep your vehicle in good health and functioning optimally for an extended period. They help you avoid high repair costs that could arise from neglecting oil changes. 

**HOW TO DETECT WHEN YOUR LUBE, OIL OR FILTER SYSTEMS NEED REPLACEMENT** 

Most cars are equipped with an indicator light that activates when it’s time for an oil change. Additionally, manufacturers provide guidance on the mileage intervals for oil changes. 

Traditionally, oil changes were recommended every 3,000 miles. However, with advancements in lubrication technology, current recommendations suggest intervals of 5,000-7,000 miles. Morgan's Auto Repair advises service at the 5,000-mile mark to help prolong the life of your vehicle.
