How Often Should I Change My Oil?

Your engine works hard and produces the energy your vehicle needs to perform at its best. With this in mind, getting regular oil changes is essential. At Prime Automotive, we believe you should change your oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. If you have recently purchased a new car near Massachusetts, Maine, and New Hampshire, then you can get an oil change between 5,000 and 7,500 miles—depending on your driving habits.

Signs You May Need an Oil Change

Of course, there are various factors that can indicate that you may need to change your oil. For example, if you drive a Ford F-150 or Ram 1500 and tow heavy equipment, you may need to schedule your oil change sooner. In addition to how often you tow, the time of year can also affect how often you may need an oil change. If you drive long distances, then you will want to check your oil life sooner. Oil changes can enhance vehicle longevity and increase gas mileage.
