Symptoms of Low Engine Oil


How Often Should I Get My Oil Changed?

Oil ChangeOne of the most common questions is, “how often should I get my oil changed?” The answer is specific to your driving habits, make, and model, as some vehicles vary. However, the common consensus is that you should have your oil changed about every 5,000 to 7,500 miles.

If you have a vehicle with a more power-hungry engine, you could be looking at an oil change every 3,000 miles. The key here is to reference your vehicle’s owner’s manual to get a more concise idea of your car’s specific needs.

Additionally, even if you haven’t hit the mark to get an oil change, there are some signs that you may need one sooner. These include:

  • Rattling noise in your vehicle
  • Poor fuel economy
  • Excess vehicle exhaust

If you’re experiencing these signs, it may be time for an oil change. Schedule a service appointment with our dealership today, and we can take care of it for you.


How Often Should I Change My Oil?


How Often Should I Get My Tires Rotated?

Tire RotationGetting your tires rotated is key to maintaining your tire’s longevity and safety. Depending on your driving style, you should get your tires rotated every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. If you drive on rougher terrain, like gravel, it could be sooner than that.

Usually, you can get your tires rotated alongside an oil change. That way, you can get them both knocked out at once and have peace of mind that your vehicle is in great shape.

Tire rotations are essential to ensure that your tires wear evenly. If they don’t wear evenly, it can cause traction loss and make driving in intense weather, like rain or snow, more dangerous.

There are visual signs that you may need a tire rotation sooner, though. So, if you notice any of these, it may be time to schedule a service appointment at our dealership:

  • Uneven wear between tires
  • Frequent tire pressure loss
  • Vehicle vibration caused by uneven wear

Why Is My Check Engine Light On?

Check Engine Light

Your check engine light may pop on out of the blue. In some cases, it’s not even an issue that needs immediate attention. However, it’s essential to understand the possibilities so you can get the proper service.

For starters, your check engine light could be on for several reasons:

  • Loose gas cap
  • Spark plug issue
  • Thermostat issue
  • Ignition coil issue
  • Mass airflow sensor issue 

In some cases, your check engine light could be on due to a humidity change; if this happens, it should go off after some time. However, don’t ignore your check engine light. Since it could be one of many possible issues, it’s best to schedule service to be examined.
