Engine oil serves as a lubricant for your car's engine. It ensures that all the moving parts work smoothly together, reducing friction and preventing excessive wear and tear. Additionally, engine oil helps to regulate the temperature inside the engine, preventing it from overheating. Over time, engine oil becomes dirty and less effective at performing these responsibilities. This is why it is important to take care of oil changes routinely.

The oil filter captures contaminants and debris that can accumulate in the engine oil. It prevents these particles from circulating and causing damage to the engine. Like engine oil, the oil filter should be replaced regularly to prevent clogs and help keep clean oil circulating through the engine.

Issues will occur if the engine oil and filter are not changed. Overused or dirty engine oil can lead to increased friction and wear on engine components. A clogged or ineffective oil filter will prevent clean oil from flowing or break and allow contaminants to circulate, compromising engine performance and overall efficiency.
