As the great Ned Stark always said, winter is coming. But what does that have to do with your oil changes?
The seasons shifting from the balmy summer and fall months toward harsher climes is a good reminder to take care of vehicle maintenance. Breaking down on a nice day is one thing, breaking down in January is another!
It is also worth noting that the frigid winters in Mays Landing can cause your oil to need replacement more frequently. All that salt spray can contaminate oil faster than driving over clean, dry roads. Eventually, salt particles in your oil tank can lead to corrosion. Making frequent short trips in freezing temperatures can also contribute to premature aging of engine oil.
Check your vehicle's factory-recommended maintenance schedule based on model, and driving conditions. If you are due for an oil and filter change, now is the perfect time to make a service appointment with Shore Toyota!
