Why It’s Important to Keep Up with Regular Oil Changes for Your Luxury Vehicle

A luxury vehicle's oil needs don't differ much from a standard car, other than the type of oil and how often it needs to be changed. But why are regular oil changes necessary? We clarify below. 

G2 uses top-quality synthetic oil and OEM filters. We recommend changing your oil every 6,500 miles. When it’s time to schedule an oil change for your luxury European vehicle, call G2 Automotive in Cumming, GA for an appointment.

Improve Fuel Efficiency

Your vehicle’s fuel efficiency will improve with routine oil changes. Oil degrades and loses effectiveness as it ages. When new oil is added, it lubricates the engine, meaning the engine requires less effort to run. By enhancing your vehicle’s performance and lowering its fuel consumption, you can save money on gas.

Extend Engine Life

When used oil degrades, sludge can also accumulate, coating the inside of the engine. Because the engine is clogged, it prevents fresh oil from reaching all of the necessary areas. This builds up heat within the engine and can shorten the engine's life. 

Pass Emissions Tests

In most parts of Georgia, including Forsyth County, passing an emissions test is a requirement to register a vehicle. Emissions are examined to make sure a vehicle isn't releasing an unsafe amount of hydrocarbons, which are airborne particles. Since dirty oil causes a buildup of hydrocarbons, there is a higher chance that your vehicle may fail a future emissions test when you don't change your oil frequently. By routinely changing the oil, you can maintain a cleaner atmosphere and save yourself from the hassle of failing an emissions test.
