Oil Change Service in Anchorage, AK

What to Know About Having Your Oil Changed

Changing your vehicle's oil is one of the most important things you can do to keep it running reliably. At Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT of Anchorage, our expert technicians make it easy to get your oil changed with quality service using the proper oil for your specific make and model. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we hear about oil changes.

What's the Difference Between Regular and Synthetic Oil?

Conventional motor oil is refined from crude oil pumped out of the ground. Full synthetic oil is manufactured with chemical compounds to have more uniform properties. Synthetics flow better in cold temperatures, resist breakdown from heat, and better protect engine parts from wear.

How Often Does My Ram Truck Need an Oil Change?

Depending on your driving conditions, oil change intervals should occur every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or every six to 12 months. Check your owner's manual for the recommended oil change frequency for your specific vehicle.

Do Hybrids Like the Jeep 4xe Have Different Oil Change Needs?

Hybrid vehicles like the Jeep Wrangler 4xe still have a gasoline engine with all the standard maintenance needs, including regular oil changes. Even if you do a lot of electric driving around Wasilla or Palmer, the gas engine requires clean oil in good condition for those times when it kicks in.

Does the Oil Filter Always Need to Be Changed?

The oil filter should be changed with every oil change. The oil filter traps contaminants over time, and a dirty filter can restrict oil flow. You'll get maximum protection and performance by starting with a clean filter and fresh oil every time.

Will Regular Oil Changes Improve My Gas Mileage?

Several factors impact your fuel economy, but using the correct grade of clean oil is one of them. Dirty oil creates more friction and robs your engine of efficiency. Getting your oil changed on schedule with quality oil is an easy way to optimize your gas mileage on drives around Kenai and beyond.
