Synthetic Oil Change Service with Colonial South Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram

Regular driving in Fairhaven puts a great deal of heat and stress on your RAM 1500’s engine oil. Over time, your oil (and its additives) break down, requiring it to be replaced with fresh synthetic oil. In general, you should get an oil change every 10,000 miles but added stress and heavy use can require more frequent changes. When you rake your car to the certified professionals at Colonial South Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram they will drain the old oil, add fresh new oil, and in most cases replace the engine filter.

Why You Need an Oil Change

When commuting to and from New Bedford you need your Jeep Cherokee’s engine running at its best to ensure a safe and predictable drive. Old engine oil can cause a variety of performance issues and potentially damage your automobile’s engine. Issues can include reduced performance, overheating, and in extreme cases a complete engine seize-up. A Mopar synthetic oil change helps prevent reduced performance and protects vital engine components from damage, leading to expensive repairs.

What is Synthetic Oil?

A full-synthetic oil is an artificially created engine lubricant made in a laboratory. It provides advanced levels of protection, engine performance, works well in high or low temperatures, and provides a longer usage life than other engine oil types. When you use a full full-synthetic you are providing your Jeep Wrangler the most advanced oil on the market and ensuring a comfortable drive in Westport.

Synthetic Oil Versus Conventional Oil

When you walk into your local Fall River automotive parts store one of the first things you’ll see is the sheer variety of oil types and brands available for purchase. When you need engine oil for your Jeep Grand Cherokee synthetic and conventional oil are two popular choices. Conventional oil is affordable and a time-tested solution for engine lubrication needs. By comparison, a full-synthetic will last longer, perform better under extreme conditions, and offer additional protection for your engine. However, full-synthetic oil is more expensive than conventional oil.
