OIL CHANGE SERVICE - Brighton Jeep
JEEP OIL CHANGE AT Brighton Jeep
At Brighton Jeep, we believe the ongoing maintenance of your oil and oil filter is imperative to help keep your vehicle performing efficiently, year after year. To ensure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must be maintained at the correct level.
Oil filters are responsible for maintaining engine oil purity and slowing down engine wear. Regular maintenance will ensure your Jeep functions at maximum efficiency and performance.
One vital step to keeping your vehicle in good condition is regularly scheduled oil changes. When oil is not changed regularly, internally lubricated engine components can wear out prematurely leading to expensive repair costs. Clean oil is crucial for proper engine operation. Having your vehicle's oil changed at Brighton Jeep is a great way to maintain the longevity of your vehicle and avoid expensive engine repairs.
During an oil change, the technician visually inspects fluids and components tops up all fluids and changes the filter. Refer to your owner's manual for information on when to bring your vehicle in for maintenance service. It's very important to always complete scheduled service on your vehicle.
WHY DO I NEED THE RIGHT ENGINE OIL?
Other than keeping your engine running, oil has a number of other functions that help improve the performance and extend the longevity of your vehicle.
Friction Reduction: Oil lubricates your engine ensuring that it functions smoothly, and minimal energy is lost to friction which reduces wear and tear and helps your engine last longer.
Engine Cleaning: As motor oil circulates through your engine, it collects dust and debris and deposits them in the engine oil filter, keeping them away from engine parts.
Rust and Corrosion Prevention: Oxidisation (rust) weakens and wears down engine parts. Motor oils have additives that prevent the build-up or rust and corrosion, helping your engine last longer.
Heat Reduction: When your engine gets too hot, it can cause the machinery to malfunction. Engine oil helps the heat dissipate to cooler parts of the engine, helping to prevent overheating.
Weather Tolerance: Some oils are optimized for extreme weather conditions and can ensure that the engine starts up in the cold and reduces volume loss to burn-off in the heat.
Improved Performance: Motor oil helps the engine run smoothly which reduces energy consumption and improves energy transfer, so you get more power when you need it.
