Oil Changes at Findlay Buick GMC

Whether your vehicle uses gasoline or diesel fuel, you'll need to change your engine oil regularly to keep everything running smoothly. We recommend not skipping oil changes as getting oil changes at a higher mileage can negatively affect your vehicle's engine. Within the category of oil changes, you'll have several options available to you. Here's what you need to know to determine which is best for your needs.

    Types of Oil We Offer

    Conventional oil is more commonly used in older vehicles, so be sure to check the manufacturer's guidelines to verify that your vehicle needs this type of oil. In general, you'll have to change your oil and filter about every 3,000 miles with conventional oil. It is also a good idea to wait for your engine to warm up before driving in cold weather to give the oil time to make its way through the engine.
    Conventional Oil Change
      As you might have guessed from the name, semi-synthetic oil is a blend of conventional and synthetic oils. This enables it to incorporate some of the benefits of full synthetic oil but at a lower price point. With this type of oil, check with your technician for the appropriate oil change schedule, as it can vary widely.
      Semi-Synthetic Oil Change
        Full Synthetic Oil
        Most modern cars, trucks, and SUVs use full synthetic oil, as it is better for both your engine and the environment. You'll also get better fuel economy and won't have to change your oil as frequently. With synthetic oil, the typical oil change schedule ranges from 5,000 to 10,000 miles, depending on the size of your oil tank and your driving habits. You won't need to wait for the engine to warm up as you do with conventional oil either, as synthetic oil can better handle colder temperatures without congealing.

          Diesel Oil
          If your vehicle runs on diesel, you'll need an oil that is specifically designed for diesel engines, so make sure your chosen oil change service provider has this capability. As with gasoline engines, you'll be able to choose between conventional, semi-synthetic and full synthetic oil for your diesel vehicle. In general, diesel engines can go a bit longer between oil changes, typically needing service every 7,500 miles or so.
