Oil Changes
Regular oil changes are one of the best ways you can keep your car’s engine in top shape. Engine oil lubricates your engine’s internal components, reducing friction and heat that can damage your engine. Over time, engine oil breaks down and starts to lose its lubricating abilities, which is why frequent oil changes as recommended by the manufacturer are crucial for preventing premature engine wear. At Bravo Chevrolet of Las Cruces, our technicians can help you with oil changes that meet the requirements for your vehicle. Let’s take a closer look at oil changes and how our technicians can help you keep your investment in top shape.
Why Regular Oil Changes Are Important
Regular oil changes are arguably the single most important type of preventive maintenance you can do for your vehicle. When you skip oil changes or go past the vehicle’s recommended oil change interval, you increase the risk of all kinds of mechanical issues. Some of the more common issues that can arise with vehicles that don’t receive frequent oil changes include:
• Increased engine wear • Reduced fuel efficiency • Engine overheating • Sludge buildup • Reduced performance
Routine oil changes are the easiest way you can prevent these issues, and at Bravo Chevrolet, our service center makes oil changes even easier.

Synthetic Oil Versus Conventional Oil
One of the more common questions our customers ask about oil changes is the difference between synthetic and conventional motor oil. Conventional motor oil is made from crude oil and is typically more affordable than synthetic oil. While conventional oil can be used in older engines, it is typically not recommended for newer vehicles and requires more frequent changing than synthetic oil. Synthetic motor oil is engineered to withstand high temperatures better and better protect your engine during cold starts. Our team at Bravo Chevrolet will ensure your vehicle receives the right type of oil during an oil change to perform at its absolute best.
