Changing Your Conventional Oil
At Niello Volkswagen, our conventional oil change service begins with a certified technician, state-of-the-art facility, certified service protocol, and genuine fluids and parts. It is important to remember that our conventional oil change service can be completed quickly and conveniently at our Service Xpress that requires no appointment.
The certified technician will drain the old oil from the system, remove the old oil filter, and inspect the undercarriage for oil leaks. If the engine oil system is in excellent condition, the certified technician will install factory authorized conventional or synthetic oil to restore factory specifications.
Warning Signs That Your Motor Oil is Braking Down
As engine oil begins experiencing a thermal breakdown, it loses viscosity as a lubricant as it forms into a sludgy consistency that neither lubricates nor cools the engine properly. When this happens, the warning signs of engine oil's thermal breakdown begin surfacing.
If you experience any of the warning signs of bad engine oil, it is an excellent response to have the oil changed regardless of the mileage and maintenance schedule. Here are the most common warning signs related to engine oil's thermal breakdown:
Dashboard warning light
Smelling oil inside the cabin
Engine runs hotter than usual
Oil leaking or requires repeated topping off
Engine sounds louder than normal
Overly dark exhaust smoke
