Oil Change in Akron, OH

When should you go for an oil change service?

Earlier, drivers had to get an oil change every 3,000 miles. However, with modern technologies and lubricants, most vehicles require an oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. And if your vehicle’s engine needs full-synthetic motor oil, it can go as far as 15,000 miles between oil changes. If you are unsure about your Kia’s service intervals, you can refer to its user manual. Additionally, you can contact our team at Vandevere Kia, and we will answer all your questions. Alternatively, you can bring your vehicle to our service center for an inspection, and if it needs an oil change, we will let you know. 

What are the signs of dirty engine oil? 

While clean oil improves the performance of your car, it also extends the lifespan of your vehicle’s engine. Therefore, a regular oil change is an essential service to keep your car in a healthy condition. Although the dashboard of your vehicle has a warning light to indicate if there is a need for an oil change, we have listed some more signs that suggest your vehicle requires an oil change service:  

• Dark or dirty oil 
• The engine makes a ticking or tapping noise  
• Burnt oil smell in the car 
• Blue or gray smoke coming from the exhaust
