Why are Oil Changes Recommended Maintenance?

Combustion engines have several moving parts with oil providing the lubrication that they need to move freely. Keeping the internal parts lubricated and cool allows them to work efficiently together without the risk of overheating. Given enough time, all motor oils begin breaking down and become less effective at lubricating and cooling the internal parts. This will increase the friction and heat proven to cause rapid wear and tear on the engine's moving parts. Oil changes are necessary to clean out the old oil and accumulation while installing fresh oil to keep the engine lubricated at specifications.

Types of Oil Changes We Offer

Conventional Oil

Conventional motor oil has been the traditional lubricant for combustion engines since the beginning of the automotive industry. Today's conventional oil has been advanced via chemical engineering. If your Chevrolet runs on conventional motor oil, we invite you to get the oil change needed at Chevrolet of New Bern every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

Synthetic Blend Oil

Also commonly referred to as semi-synthetic, this type of motor oil is described simply as a mixture of petroleum-based and synthetic oils. The additional synthetic oil improves its viscosity and its resistance to thermal breakdown. You can get your synthetic blend oil change at our GM-certified service department in New Bern, NC.

Full-Synthetic Oil

A man-made synthetic technology, this type of motor oil does not contain any petroleum. It was invented by chemical engineers to mimic petroleum's lubricative property but with a smaller molecule that delivers peak viscosity and the best resistance to the thermal breakdown of the motor oil alternatives. You will still need to get full-synthetic oil changed every 7,500 to 10,000 miles.

Diesel Engine Oil Changes

We offer diesel engine oil changes for Chevrolet models like the Silverado with the heavy-duty Duramax diesel engine.

What Happens When Drivers Do Not Get Oil Changes on Time?

Driving past an oil change interval or putting off the oil monitoring system invites engine problems that are preventable by simply getting the oil changed on time. Broken down oil inside the engine generates friction and heat that allows for internal parts to get excessive wear and tear. When the internal parts are not lubricated properly, the engine runs rougher and louder, fuel efficiency drops, and parts get worn prematurely, increasing operational costs. Given the benefits of oil changes on time and the consequences of extended oil changes, it is an excellent decision to get the oil changed as recommended.
