When Should I Get an Oil Change Service in Santa Fe, NM?

Your car oil plays a big role by lubricating the moving components in your engine to help lessen the friction between them. Oil can also help keep the engine parts clean and prevent overheating. [content-text-1-5] Oil also helps clean engine parts and prevent the engine from getting too hot. When you don’t have enough oil or your oil gets too dirty, the moving parts may grate against each other rather than slide, which can lead to engine damage. Regularly scheduled oil and filter changes are needed to help your engine stay in great shape so you can continue to enjoy Santa Fe streets and highways.

Usually, you should get an oil change at 5,000-mile or six-month intervals (whichever occurs first). This interval might differ due to your vehicle and driving conditions, so make sure you reference your owner’s manual for the correct maintenance intervals. You should also watch for signs you might need an oil change, including an illuminated Check Engine light, a strong oil odor in your cabin, weird engine sounds, dark oil (oil should be amber when clean) and excessive exhaust. If you come across any of these signs, visit your nearest Nissan dealer in Santa Fe, NM for an inspection and oil change service.

An oil change goes beyond just putting new oil in your car. During a Nissan oil change service in Santa Fe, our skilled technicians start by emptying all your old oil. Then, they install a new oil filter. The filter helps remove contaminants from your oil to help it operate cleanly and correctly. A dirty oil filter can cause your oil to become sludgy and decrease its efficiency, so swapping the filter the same time you swap the oil is vital. Our Genuine Nissan Oil Filters feature anti-drainback valves that help reduce engine wear by holding the oil in the filter when the engine isn’t running.

Once the filter is changed, our technicians add new, high-quality oil to your engine. Your Nissan dealer in Santa Fe offers the best synthetic blend and full synthetic oil products for your Nissan. Our technicians finish your oil change service with a complimentary multi-point inspection (where offered)* to help catch other issues and help ensure your vehicle is running as it should.
