Where Can I Get an Oil Change in Richmond, VA?

When Should I Get an Oil Change Service in Richmond, VA?

Your car oil works by lubricating your engine's moving components to help reduce friction. It can also help prevent overheating and keep the moving parts clean. When your oil level gets too low or your oil is dirty, the moving parts may scrape against each other rather than slide, which can lead to engine damage. Regular oil and filter changes are important to help ensure your engine stays in good condition so you can continue enjoying Richmond roads.

Generally, it's recommended you get an oil change around every 5,000 miles or six months (whichever occurs first). This timespan can differ depending upon your vehicle and how you drive, so be sure to consult your owner's manual for exact maintenance intervals. You also want to keep an eye out for signs your vehicle might need an oil change, like the Check Engine light turning on, a strong oil smell in the cabin, weird noises coming from the engine, black oil (clean oil is amber or close to yellow) and smoky exhaust. If any of these signs sound familiar, make an appointment at your nearest Nissan dealer right away for an inspection and oil change service in Richmond, VA.

Find Full Synthetic and Synthetic Blend Oil Changes in Richmond, VA

An oil change involves more than just putting new oil in your car. When you come in for an Nissan oil change service in Richmond, our professional technicians start by emptying all your old oil. Then, they put in 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 turn sludgy and affect its efficiency, so changing the filter when you change the oil is crucial. Our Genuine Nissan Oil Filters feature anti-drainback valves meant to help lessen wear on your engine by holding the oil in the filter when the engine isn't going.

Once the filter is changed, our technicians refill your engine with high-quality motor oil. Your Richmond Nissan dealer carries the best oil for your Nissan, including full synthetic and synthetic blend options. A complimentary multi-point inspection is performed at the end of your oil change service (where offered)* to help catch other problems and help make sure your vehicle is performing as intended.
