The engine’s oil and oil filter must be serviced regularly. Lack of oil and filter maintenance can greatly shorten engine life or create extreme amounts of carbon buildup. Used oil will be contaminated with dirt, metal particles, carbon, gasoline, ash, acids and other harmful substances.

Automakers give oil change intervals, the maximum number of kilometres (or miles) a vehicle can be driven between oil changes. Unless otherwise specified in your owner’s manual, it is recommended to change your oil every 5,000 km or every 3 months, whichever comes first. For Synthetic Oils, we recommend 8,000-10,000km or 6 months.
