These days, many people aren't driving their cars as much. Newer motor oils don't require you to change the oil as frequently, as some lubricants have intervals as high as 15,000 miles. However, you still need to change the oil in your vehicle, even if you don't drive much. Here's why.
If you have a late model vehicle, it may remind you to change the oil. Most newer cars track how many miles you have traveled since your last oil change by displaying a reminder on your dashboard. When you see one of these reminders, bring your vehicle into Hendrick MINI soon for an oil change.
For those with older cars, consult your owner's manual. Getting an oil change after every 3,000 miles is no longer the norm. The interval is at least 5,000 for most lubricants. Make sure that you change your oil at least once a year to protect the engine.
