Engine oil keeps your Chevy’s engine from total destruction — and we’re not exaggerating! Your engine has numerous components that move incredibly quickly, and these parts create massive amounts of friction. If not for engine oil, the friction would make short work of your engine. However, oil doesn’t last forever. The heat and pressure of the engine make oil wear down, which is why oil changes are necessary. With conventional oil, it’s wise to have the oil changed about every three months or every 3,000 miles — whichever comes first.
Conventional oil is the oldest type of engine oil. As a mineral oil refined from crude oil, it does its job of keeping your engine lubricated and is less expensive upfront than other types of oil. However, if you want to be able to go longer between oil changes, we recommend considering upgrading to synthetic oil. It may cost more than conventional, but it also lasts longer. You can talk to one of our experts to find out whether synthetic oil is right for your Chevy.
