Oil Change and Oil Filter Replacement
For your car to run efficiently, you need fresh and clean motor oil in your engine. While modern motor oil can last far longer than ever before, you still need to routinely change out the oil and replace your oil filter. Running a car with old oil can cause the lubricant to not work effectively. This leads to unnecessary friction on engine parts that can damage your vehicle.
At Bosch Auto Service, we provide a premium experience and high-quality oil and oil filters. At every auto repair appointment, we perform a complimentary multi-point inspection to keep you informed about your vehicle’s health.
When Do I Need an Oil Change?
It’s unfortunate in the driving world that most vehicle owners wait too long to request an oil and filter change. For many, it’s easy to assume that the car is working perfectly and that everything is okay if the warning lights on their dash aren’t on. However, the warning lights often don’t turn on until your car has already suffered major damage. Knowing when to get an oil and filter change is necessary to avoid harm to your engine.
Oil Change Services and Oil Change Frequency
Bosch Auto Service recommends changing your vehicle’s oil based on the manufacturer’s recommendations. The specific mileage you can safely drive per change will depend heavily on the type of oil you use and the manufacturer's recommendations. Your car could be fitted with:
- Standard oil change
- Conventional oil change
- Synthetic oil change
- High mileage oil change
What to Expect at Each Oil Change
Why You Need Oil Changes and Oil Filter Replacement
Changing out your car’s oil prevents friction damage, corrosion, and built-up contamination on engine parts. Modern synthetic oils can even provide a host of high-tech benefits, such as cleaning engine parts and protecting them from deposits. Ultimately, an oil change helps protect your engine and keeps your car healthier for longer with better performance.
At Bosch Auto Service, we routinely handle oil changes for all vehicle types. Our technicians are passionate about service and ensure each car drives away in the best possible condition. We ensure the optimal oil type for your vehicle; be it standard oil, conventional oil, synthetic oil, or high mileage oil.

How often do I need to change my car’s oil?
The type of oil you use will heavily influence how often you have to change it. Most oil changes are based on mileage use. A general rule of thumb is:
Standard Oil - Every 3,000 miles
Conventional Oil - Every 4,000 miles
Synthetic Oil - Every 5,000 miles
High Mileage Oil - Every 7,500 miles
What’s the difference between the types of oil?
The type of oil used in your car varies based on the materials and techniques used to create it. For example, synthetic oil goes through a chemical process that helps its molecules maintain a more uniform shape, reducing impurities and allowing it to run through your engine for longer without causing damage.
