3 Warnings – Does your vehicle need an oil change?
When was the last time you changed the oil in your emotional tank? If you take your car on short trips or for longer rides, it’s important that you stick with the routine oil change every 6 months. Even if your car hasn’t racked up some serious miles under its tires, failure to swap out oil at regular intervals will cause serious damage to your engine. At Valvoline Express Care Oil Change Brampton, our premium oil lubricant prevents deposits from forming on the engine’s component, keeping it running optimally.
Vehicle Oil looks black and gritty
If upon inspection of the dipstick under the hood, the oil turns black or gritty that you can’t locate the dipstick in weeks, you need an oil change immediately. Don’t put it off. If you do, the filter will become clogged, and the dirt in the oil will make it thick, and cause further damage to the engine. At oil change Brampton, our technicians will pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean. Once the dipstick is placed back in the chamber, it should have a slight amber tint. Now that’s taken care of, don’t forget to check the oil level while you’re at it.
Engine Oil seems to be running louder than usual
Since the purpose of motor oil is to lubricate your engine, it’s easy enough to tell if you’re running low. Does your engine sound like a water boat? If your engine seems to be louder than it usually is, it probably doesn’t have enough lubrication. If the oil in your car is too old, it may break down and become less effective. This is what causes the pieces of the engine to rub and grind together, creating a lot of abnormal noise from under the hood. While that’s annoying, it also means the parts are already overheating, and revving up the engine. In order to get rid of such conditions, take your car to oil change Brampton. We will put in fresh oil right away.
You can’t remember the last time you changed your oil
Need a reminder? If you can’t recall the last oil change, it has been far too long. Bring in your car for service at oil change Brampton as soon as possible. It’s always a good idea to follow the manufacturer’s recommendation, which can be found in your owner’s manual or right on the oil filler cap.

Rust proofing Brampton: what is rust and why is it such a problem?
Rust build-up is the result of a natural process where the iron in metals comes into contact with oxygen and water, causing it to corrode and deteriorate.
The thing about rust? It spreads quickly. Finding a spot of rust on the surface of your vehicle is no reason to panic. On the other hand, if your car is left outside all year long or you neglect to keep it clean, you are likely to have a bigger problem (rust spots that are larger than 12 inches in diameter require major repairs). When deep rusts sets in, it eats away at the undercarriage and cause components to break or fall off while you’re driving. This damage, which occurs through normal use, can be avoided. As soon as you notice even a small bubble, come by rust proofing Brampton. When you deal with rust early, it can save you no end of time and money in the long run.
