To keep running smoothly, your car highly relies on oil, lube, and oil filters. Oil helps in lubricating, cooling, and cleaning the internal engine components. With time, motor oil becomes contaminated. Your car needs an oil, lube, and filter change every three months (or 3,000 miles). When it is time for a lube, oil, or filter change, bring your vehicle to Late Night Speed Shop. Other things may need to be checked and fixed on a car from time to time, but changing the oil is probably the most important part of routine maintenance for any vehicle. An oil change consists of removing the old oil from a vehicle's engine and replacing it with new, fresh oil.
