Why should I get an oil change?

The Importance of Regular Oil Changes for Your Vehicle's Engine

Engine oil plays a critical role in the operation of a vehicle's engine. Its primary function is to lubricate, protect, and maintain the various components within the engine. To maintain the effectiveness of engine oil, it's important to change it regularly. Over time, engine oil breaks down, becomes contaminated, and loses its lubricating properties. Changing the oil and oil filter at recommended intervals, as specified by the vehicle manufacturer, is crucial to ensure the engine continues to run smoothly and remains protected. Failure to do so can lead to increased wear and potential engine damage. Auto Tech is proud to offer oil change service to Martinsville, Collinsville, and the surrounding communities of Henry County, VA!
