Oil & Filter Change
Certified Honda Oil Change Service
To maintain your vehicle’s oil quality, you need to change out your oil and your oil filters at regular intervals. Doing so is pivotal to keeping your Honda running in top shape.
The recommended mileage point to change the oil in your vehicle will be determined by its specific make and model. The same rings true for when to change your oil filter. Though ideally, you should change your oil filter with every oil change.
Consult your owners manual to determine these suggested mileage markers. And keep in mind that these numbers are merely recommendations.
How frequently and heavily you drive your vehicle will also affect how often you need these services completed.
When an oil filter malfunctions or you let your oil sit unchanged for too long, debris in the oil makes its way to the engine. This debris can, over time, gum up the inner workings of the engine, causing other parts to malfunction and fail. This can cause extensive damage and lead to costly repairs.
