Your GMC or Buick engine requires oil to keep it lubricated and clean, enabling it to run efficiently. By getting a regular oil change from the certified technicians at your local GMC dealership, you can enhance your engine performance, improve fuel consumption, and extend the life of your vehicle.
The Importance of Oil and Filter Changes
If you want your vehicle’s engine to perform at its best, you should pay attention to the importance of regularly changing the oil and filter. The oil in your car is a lubricant for the engine, reducing friction that causes heat and wear and helps keep the components under the hood running smoothly. Over time and with use, the oil can become contaminated and deteriorate.
The lack of lubrication leads to increased friction, which in turn can cause wear, overheating, and high fuel consumption. It is crucial to change your vehicle’s oil and filter at the intervals recommended by the manufacturer or when you receive an alert from the Oil Life Monitoring System (OLMS) to prevent engine damage and maintain optimal engine performance.
When To Change the Oil and Filter
We recommend changing your vehicle’s oil and filter every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or every six months, especially if you drive an older model. With newer models, the Oil Life Monitoring System (OLMS) tracks your vehicle’s speed, engine temperature, and mileage to determine the appropriate time to change the oil.
Once the OLMS light turns on, it’s an indication that you need to have an oil and filter change. To be sure about your car’s oil and filter change schedule, refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or speak to one of our certified technicians.
Using the Proper Oil
It’s crucial to use the correct oil with the appropriate grade and viscosity, just as it is vital to change the oil regularly. We suggest using full synthetic oil options such as ACDelco Gold Conventional Oil, ACDelco dexos1 Full Synthetic, and Mobil 1 Full Synthetic Oil for their excellent lubrication and engine protection properties.
