Whether you're exploring the history at the Old Colony History Museum or grabbing a bite at the Liberty and Union Alehouse, the oil coursing through your engine will keep your car performing at its best. That's why it's so important to find a reliable service center team to handle your next oil change near Taunton, Massachusetts.
Our service center here at Stateline Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram (CJDR) is staffed by a team of factory-trained technicians. They have years of experience and have helped us create this guide to prepare you for your vehicle's next oil change.
When Should I Change My Oil near Taunton?
Most Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram vehicles need an oil change at least every 10,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. Many newer models come with an oil change indicator system that monitors driving conditions and alerts you when it's time for a change. When the Change Oil message appears, schedule an oil change in the next 500 miles.
Your vehicle could also exhibit some warning signs if it's in need of an oil change. The signs you should look out for include:
- Loud engine knocking
- Smoke coming from the exhaust
- Smell of burning oil
- Oil pressure warning light is illuminated
Do you see a spot in the driveway? In rare cases, an oil leak may signify that your vehicle is due for an oil change, but it's more likely the sign of a deeper issue. The oil pan could be cracked or the engine gasket might be degraded. In either case, schedule a service appointment to have the cause diagnosed.
Conventional or Synthetic
When choosing between synthetic and conventional oil, you'll first want to check to see which type is required in your specific make, model, and model year. There are some newer Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram vehicles that require fully synthetic oil or at least a blend, but it's usually recommended for most newer models.
What makes synthetic oil the superior choice? It all has to do with the way it's made. It starts with higher quality base oils, which are further distilled to remove the many impurities found in conventional oil. This provides benefits like:
- Better protection in extreme temperatures
- Longer engine protection
- Sludge resistance
- Better flow rate
When the cold New England winters roll in, synthetic oil is clearly the better choice. It has a better flow rate so, even in cold temperatures, it starts protecting your engine as soon as you turn on your vehicle.
