Engine Oil Change
Regular car service is vital for the health of the vehicle’s engine. Certain components need to be replaced after a certain usage or they may create problems. Some of the must replaceable parts are
- Engine oil
- Oil filter
Engine Oil Facts:
- Foremost important function of the engine oil is to well lubricate the engine machine components.
- The various moving parts (Pistons) grind against each other and may cause frictional problems. Engine oil is added to reduce friction and to act as a cooling medium to carry the heat away from the engine parts.
- After every 10-15kms of travelling, the viscosity of the engine oil tends to decrease. If the engine keeps on running with deteriorated engine oil, efficiency is greatly affected.
- Internal parts may get affected due deterioration of engine oil. Damaged parts may lead to seizure of the engine and a pile up of an expensive repair bill.
Oil Filter Facts:
- It is a device which filters the oil before it trickles down to the engine block to minimise friction and to save the engine from particulate matter.
- Oil Filter should be changed at regular intervals to avoid side effects like Engine Seizure.
