Engine oil lubricates your engine’s moving parts to reduce the damaging friction.
Clean oil prevents the buildup of sludge which can clog the narrow oil passages in your engine.
As parts are not cooled by radiator coolant, they quickly become worn down without sufficient oil.
Without enough clean oil, mechanical parts wear out and become corroded, costing you money and precious time.
Dust, dirt enter the engine through its air induction system. Small amounts of water form when the engine is heated and cooled. The reaction of the two creates an acid that reacts with the oil.
Eventually, the oil begins to oxidize and thicken until it no longer performs to its optimum capability.
Oil changes are recommended to determine the level of contamination within your engine oil.
If you see your vehicle’s oil level drop from its highest to lowest mark in less than 1600km, you should ask a mechanic to check the engine as soon as possible.
