Why are oil changes so important for my Grand Cherokee?
There are many different reasons why oil changes are not the kind of routine maintenance you want to ignore with your Jeep Grand Cherokee. In fact, out of all of these services, oil changes remain the most vital to the overall functioning of your ride. This is because your engine absolutely relies on the engine oil to keep things running smoothly. The point of the oil is to act as a lubricant in a system with a lot of fast-moving metal parts. Without the engine oil, especially fresh engine oil, there can be too much friction and heat in the system, which can cause a lot of damage that we know no one wants to have to pay for. Just by having your engine oil changed out routinely, you keep your Grand Cherokee's engine in great working condition and avoid any costly repair fees.
Are there different types of engine oil I can choose from?
For those of you who may not be as familiar with engine oil for a variety of reasons, you may not know that there are three main categories of engine oil available for you to choose from for your Grand Cherokee. At the end of the day, you are the one who chooses which one you want us to use, and we will always respect that. The first kind of engine oil is known as conventional oil, which is the traditional oil that has been used for decades and is best for older vehicles that are still being driven. For another option, you may consider semi-synthetic. This kind of oil takes properties of synthetic oil and mixes them with traditional to create something new and unique. The final option is fully synthetic engine oil, which tends to last longer, allowing you to go longer between each oil change.
How often should my Jeep Grand Cherokee get an oil change?
When you are planning out your oil change schedule, it's something that our service technicians would like to work out with you one-on-one. Driving habits, the type of engine you're using, and the age of your vehicle can all determine these factors. However, many people believe that you should be getting an oil change twice a year, or every 6 months. This can change depending on if you're using conventional or synthetic oil, as synthetic doesn't wear down as quickly and may allow you to get an oil change every year instead. We always recommend referring to your owner's manual, and our team of professionals is here to lend a hand, too!
