What You Need to Know About Oil Changes at Victorville Hyundai

Why is getting my car's oil changed important?

Oil serves as a lubricant for all the moving parts of your engine, so low oil quality means low levels of lubrication. To keep your Hyundai running smooth, you'll need regular oil changes.

How do I know when my car needs an oil change?

As a general rule, you should have your oil changed every 3,000 to 10,000 miles. However, the exact mileage varies based on the make and model of your car.

Regardless of mileage, you should consult a technician if you encounter any of these warning signs:          

• Check engine light comes on dashboard
       
• Particles are visible in oil
       
• Oil is dark in color
       
• Engine runs louder than normal
       
• Oil levels are low
   

How do I check the oil in my car myself?

Check the oil yourself by following these steps:   

1. Turn your engine off and wait at least 10 minutes.
   
2. Pop the hood.
   
3. Pull the dipstick out of the oil reservoir and wiping it across lint-free cloth.
   
4. Place the dipstick back into the reservoir before pulling it out again.
   
5. Check for oily film at the end of the dipstick.

Healthy oil will show up clear and golden. If there are floating particles in the oil, or if it is dark brown or black, bring your car to the service center.
