WHY REGULAR OIL CHANGES MATTER

Engine oil plays a critical role in keeping your vehicle running smoothly. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, helps manage engine temperature, and cleans away dirt and sludge that build up over time. As oil ages, it breaks down and becomes less effective—especially if you’re driving through the hills and curves of Moneta, Smith Mountain Lake, or nearby towns like Bedford, Goodview, and Rocky Mount.

Without regular oil changes, the engine has to work harder, which can lead to decreased fuel efficiency, sluggish performance, and long-term damage to internal components. Consistently replacing your oil on schedule helps protect your engine from wear and overheating, improves overall performance, and extends the life of your vehicle—saving you time, money, and unexpected breakdowns on the road.
