When it comes to your vehicle’s reliability, there are few things more important than regular maintenance. A Volvo oil change can prevent engine damage and keep your vehicle running efficiently. We’ve put together a helpful maintenance guide at Fields Volvo Cars Northfield to ensure your vehicle gets the care it needs.
What an Oil Change Includes
Engine oil lubricates your engine parts and helps to keep it clean. This can limit excessive friction, heat, and abrasion. Over time, oil gets dirty and can lose its efficiency. During an oil change, we’ll remove the old oil and replace it with fresh and clean oil, as well as replace the oil filter.
Ideal Maintenance Schedule
New Volvo vehicles typically need an oil change every 7,500 to 10,000 miles (or at least once a year). However, your ideal oil change schedule depends on a variety of factors, including the type of oil you use, your vehicle’s age and mileage, and even your driving conditions. It’s important to check your owner’s manual to see the recommended maintenance schedule for your vehicle.
Additional Maintenance Tasks
Volvo maintenance is mainly designed to prevent damage, but it can also improve your vehicle’s performance and efficiency. Plus, it ensures that your vehicle is always safe and reliable. Oil changes are only part of the maintenance that your vehicle requires. They also require:
- Fluid checks (coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, etc.)
- Tire rotations
- Windshield wiper replacements
- Brake pad replacements
- Filter replacements
- Multi-point inspection
