Oil Change
Every 5,000 km or every 6 months, whichever comes first.
● the service light will come on
● the oil is dirty looking
● the engine will emit noise e.g. knocking noise
● the color of the exhaust fume will be dark
● a burning oil smell inside of the cabin.
To prolong engine life, all engine components need clean, consistent lubrication.
Over time, the oil will become dirty enough to clog the engine parts, resulting in engine blockage and stopping performance at normal capacity. This can ruin the vehicle overall and have more long term expenses.
Conventional and synthetic oil starts in the soil, but after that, there are no more similarities. The synthetic oil is not only refined but also distilled, and purified into its basic particles. This process not only eliminates more impurities from the unrefined oil, but also makes it possible to adapt the individual particles of the oil to the requirements of modern engines. These custom particles offer higher levels of protection and performance than conventional oil.
It is more durable, it has a longer life than traditional motor oil, and a higher temperature threshold. It flows faster in cold weather than the conventional oil temperature limit.

Diagnostics
You don’t have to wait for the check engine light to get a car diagnostic test. However, It is recommended to take your car in for a diagnostic check at least once a year. Which may uncover minor problems that can’t be seen or heard (and that won’t trigger the check engine light).
● engine lights
● foreign noise coming from your vehicle

● What is the emissions level of your vehicle
● Are there faults in the PCM (Powertrain Control Module)
● What is the idle speed stress?
● Are any problems with your transmission?

Today's vehicles are designed with computer processors, microchips and sensors that can be linked to a computer which scans the vehicle's operating systems to pinpoint exactly where a problem may exist.
The main benefit of diagnostic testing is that it can quickly and accurately identify problems so that car repair times are greatly reduced. You are able stay up to date with what is going on with your vehicle.
