Oil Change Kielce

Why is engine oil the most important operating fluid in a car?

Because it is this inconspicuous oil that performs a number of very important functions, to which include:

extending the life of the engine
protection against corrosion
reduction of engine resistance
Maintaining engine performance at the appropriate level
protection of engine components
reduction of exhaust emissions
keeping combustion at the right level

As you can see - engine oil is the foundation and its regular replacement is one of the most important operational activities.

What happens if I neglect to change the oil?

You will automatically deny yourself all the above-mentioned benefits, and this should already convince you to change your oil regularly. However, let's assume that such arguments do not convince you - in that case, sooner or later the consequences will catch up with you, for example:

destruction of the pan
destruction of the crank-piston system
seizure of a motorcycle

These are some of the failures that can get you if you neglect to change the engine oil. The cost of repairing the listed defects depends on the model of the vehicle, but generalizing we can say that you will leave a minimum of PLN 1,000 at the mechanic, and the upper limit depends on the scale of damage - with serious damage, the costs can reach tens of thousands of zlotys.

Every how long should the oil be changed?

This is a matter that depends primarily on the make of the vehicle, but you should also consider your style of car use. If you drive mainly pomme - We advise you to change the oil every 10-12 thousand kilometers. If you use the vehicle mainly outside the city - a change every 15 thousand kilometers will be the optimal choice. We strongly advise against taking into account the current pseudo-ecological trends more and more often manufacturers recommend changing the oil every ~30 thousand kilometers. Following this recommendation only brings us closer to the expenses described above.
