Changing your oil offers your vehicle many benefits on the road. Every driver has gone through the experience of changing their oil before, but many may know the specific reasons why changing your oil is helpful.

The main reason to change your oil is because it extends the life of your vehicle. When you drive your car around, your oil ensures your engine is consistently lubricated. However, the longer you travel the more sludge dirt build up in your engine. This reduces your fuel efficiency, and the necessary engine lubrication. When you change your oil, these things are reversed – your fuel efficiency is improved, your engine lubrication returns to normal levels, and your vehicle is happier for it.
