Oil change near HARRISONBURG, VA

Regular oil changes can help optimize the performance and fuel economy of your Chevrolet car, truck, or SUV. Many older-model Chevrolet vehicles, including those manufactured without or before the creation of the Oil Life Monitoring System, require oil changes at 3,000-mile intervals. However, thanks to advances in engine technologies, newer models may have a longer range between oil changes. Always refer to your Chevrolet vehicle Owner’s Manual for oil-change intervals for your specific vehicle.

The Certified Service technicians at Joe Bowman Auto Plaza are expertly trained to understand how your vehicle uses its oil and how it monitors oil life. An oil change from a Certified Service technician not only gives you great service, convenience, and a great price, but you also get the added value of their expertise on your Chevrolet vehicle.

                          OIL FAQs

                          How can I be sure to get the correct type of motor oil for my vehicle?
                          You can check your Owner’s Manual for the correct grade. Or the Certified Service experts at Joe Bowman Auto Plaza can help ensure you get the proper oil for your vehicle during your scheduled service visit.
                            How do I know when my oil needs changing?
                            The majority of today’s new vehicles are equipped with the engine Oil Life System (OLS), which has made the 3,000-mile oil change obsolete in most cases. Depending on the age of the vehicle, driving habits and road conditions, vehicles with today’s advanced engines can go longer between oil changes. Always be sure to check your engine oil level regularly, even with an engine OLS.
                              Does regularly changing my oil filter help with the life of my engine?
                              Yes, it can. It helps ensure your engine is lubricated with clean oil, which can help provide optimal engine performance. See your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for the recommended oil change interval, or follow the engine Oil Life System, if equipped.
