Take Care Of Your INFINITI With Routine Oil Changes

Your INFINITI needs routine oil changes to keep the engine functioning properly. Depending on the age and mileage of your INFINITI car or SUV, you’ll need new oil at least twice annually or between 7,500 and 10,000 miles. If you have an older INFINITI, your vehicle might benefit from oil changes every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or once per season.

The service advisors at Lupient INFINITI Milwaukee near Brookfield can recommend the best oil change frequency based on the age and mileage of your vehicle as well as the way you drive your car.

Types of Oil Changes

In the past, automakers recommended getting oil changes every 3,000 miles or once per season. Older vehicles used conventional oil, which comes from crude oil and contains few, if any additives. The regular oil breaks down quickly, so it needs to be replaced to keep your engine running smoothly.

Now, newer vehicles use synthetic or synthetic blend oils. These oils have several additives that keep lubricating engines for longer than regular oil. Full synthetic oils and synthetic blends last longer, so newer vehicles do not need to replace the oil as often.

You can help yourself by checking your vehicle’s oil levels between oil changes. If you find the engine levels are low, it’s time for an oil change. Many INFINITI models have oil life monitoring systems that share the percentage of oil life remaining. It’s better to get your oil changed before the oil life drops to zero.

Benefits of Routine Oil Change Maintenance

Manufacturer’s recommended oil changes keep your car functioning properly. Motor oil lubricates engine components to reduce friction and extend the life of your INFINITI.
