Your car may be clean on the outside, but is it clean on the inside?
The life expectancy of your car depends on your answer. Motor oil gets contaminated by subtances like dust, metallic shavings and even coolant. And did you know that the additive package, which is part of your fully formulated motor oil, will break down in time and become a contaminant, too?
As contaminants are whipped into the oil, sludge is formed. This sludge will stick to parts of the engine causing the engine to perform less efficiency. Eventually this sludge can cause engine failure.
Neglecting oil changes is hazardous to your engine's health, especially if you drive under severe conditions, which most people do. Severe conditions include making short trips, driving in stop-and-go traffic, extended idling, driving in dust or dirty air, towing trailers and hot weather driving.
