Why Does My Ford Need an Oil Change?
The engine oil inside your Ford is what keeps the moving parts of the engine lubricated. Without oil, the engine would soon become damaged and destroyed by friction. But oil doesn't stand up well to the extreme heat produced by the engine, and it can also break down over time. As time passes and you drive more, the oil will begin to be less effective as a lubricant. If this happens, your engine will be in serious danger, so be sure to have the oil changed at the recommended intervals.
Types of Oil Change Service Available at Porter Ford
Conventional Oil Change
Conventional oil is the most affordable oil option and many of the drivers who visit us use it. It does the job of lubricating your engine well, though you should have it changed about every 3,000 miles.
Synthetic Oil Change
Synthetic oil is a bit more expensive than conventional oil, but it's worth the extra cost. For one thing, it lasts longer; you'll spend more at the point of service, but you may end up saving overall. In addition, it's also better for your engine: synthetic oil keeps the engine better lubricated, and it can even clean the engine.
Semi-Synthetic Oil Change
Semi-synthetic oil is a good compromise between conventional and synthetic oil. It costs a bit less than synthetic but has more of the engine-cleaning benefits than conventional oil.
Diesel Oil Change
If you drive a Ford with a diesel engine, it needs diesel-specific engine oil that includes special anti-wear additives. We carry this oil at Porter Ford.
