The Right Oil for Your Vehicle Makes All the Difference
Not every oil change is created equal. The type of oil that goes into your engine, the weight, the specification, and whether it is conventional, synthetic, or a blend, matter more than most drivers realize. Using the wrong oil in your vehicle can cause increased engine wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and in some cases, serious engine damage that could have been completely avoided.
Trusted by New Braunfels drivers since 1976, Clark’s Auto Service offers non-synthetic, synthetic, and synthetic blend oil changes and never cuts corners on specification. Every oil change we perform uses the correct weight and grade for your specific vehicle as outlined by the manufacturer. We have seen firsthand what the wrong oil does to an engine, and it is not something we are willing to risk on any vehicle that comes through our doors.
Why the Correct Oil Specification Is Not Optional
Signs Your Vehicle Is Overdue for an Oil Change
Your Oil Life Monitor or Maintenance Light Is On
When that light comes on, your vehicle is telling you it is time for a change. Do not ignore it. Continuing to drive past that point puts unnecessary wear on your engine with every mile.
You Have Reached Your Mileage Interval
Every vehicle has a manufacturer-recommended oil change interval. If you are at or past that mileage, it is time to schedule a change regardless of how the vehicle feels.
It Has Been More Than Six Months Since Your Last Change
Oil degrades over time, not just through use. If your vehicle has been sitting or you simply cannot remember your last service, the time-based interval alone is reason enough to schedule a change.
Your Oil Looks Dark and Contaminated on the Dipstick
Fresh oil is amber and translucent. Oil that looks dark, thick, or gritty has broken down and is no longer providing the protection your engine needs. If that is what your dipstick is showing, it is past time for a change.
