Engine oil is a vital fluid that lubricates the moving parts of a vehicle’s engine, reducing friction, preventing wear and helping to dissipate heat. It also plays a crucial role in cleaning the engine by carrying away dirt, metal particles and combustion by-products, which are then captured by the oil filter. Available in different types such as conventional, synthetic and semi-synthetic, engine oil is formulated to meet the specific needs of various engines. Over time, engine oil breaks down and becomes less effective, which can lead to increased engine wear and reduced performance. Regular oil changes, based on the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations, are essential to keep the engine running smoothly, improve fuel efficiency and extend the engine’s lifespan.
