When it comes to getting your oil changed, there are some standard rules you usually abide by – get your oil changed every 6 months or 3,000-5,000 miles. Well, we hate to burst your bubble, but that’s not necessarily true. The frequency of your oil changes depends on several factors, including:

• The age of your car

• The type of oil you use

• How many miles are on your car

• What conditions you usually drive in

• How hard you drive your car

The best resource to find out how often you need to get your oil changed – and that’s not the general you, we mean YOU, the person reading this right now – is your dealer. Here at Fiore Toyota, our service professionals can look at everything under your hood, talk to you about your driving habits, and determine the best time for you to get your next oil change.

Oil is incredibly important to your engine’s operation, and when you take care of your oil, you’re taking care of your engine.
