Hi Tech Auto Repair Recommends Maintaining Schedule of Oil Change

Having an oil change on your vehicle at times of the manufacturers recommended guidelines is crucial to the performance and durability of your vehicle's engine. Your engine oil lubricates as well as removes heat from the internal components of your engine. If you're running dirty, sludgy oil in your engine, its performance will suffer and you could shorten the life of important parts within the engine. That's why here at Hi-Tech Auto Repair we recommend sticking to strict schedules of oil and filter changes.

Changing the oil and filter is a relatively simple process, yet if standard procedures aren't followed your engine suffers. That's why we recommend oil change and filter changes be performed by a trained technician.

When you bring your vehicle to Hi Tech Auto Repair for oil and filter change here's the procedure we use. The technician removes the drain plug at the bottom of the oil pan and drains the old oil. Then the old oil filter is replaced with a new filter. The drain plug is reinstalled and the engine is filled with new oil. Once the new oil is added, the vehicle is started and the engine is checked for leaks. The next steps are to turn the engine off, re-check the oil level, and reset the maintenance light.

At Hi Tech Auto Repair we always follow the manufacturer's recommendation for the grade, weight and type of oil to be used in your engine. Your manufacturer's warranty may be invalid by the use of an incorrect type or weight of oil. We take every precaution to ensure the best performance of your engine each time we do oil and filter change. If we find leaks or other potential problems, we always discuss these issues with you, so you can make informed decisions and know you can trust our services.
