Without routine oil changes, your car will cease functioning completely. Oil is used by your car to lubricate, cool, and clean the engine. Without new oil, your engine will break down, which is a costly repair. Often, a dead engine means it is time for a new car.
The reason you must change your oil is that, as it cleans the engine and moves around, oil picks up minute debris from burning fuel. Over time, the debris builds up, and the oil stops being able to function as intended. Even if your engine is unaffected, by not changing your oil, you cause undue stress on other car parts. You also end up paying more for fuel and repairs over time.
Fortunately, oil changes are easy enough to take care of. So long as you stick to a proper schedule, you should be able to keep your car running smoothly well beyond its warranty.

Every car has slightly different needs when it comes to oil. There are many kinds of oil, and all motors function differently. You should be able to figure out how many miles you can go between oil changes from your vehicle manual, which will also tell you what kind of oil you need.

This service light on your dash is no emergency like the “Check Engine” light, but it means that you have gone the requisite miles since your mechanic last changed your oil.

Some other factors might make your mileage vary, like your driving habits and how often you drive. It can help you to learn how to check your oil, and your manual will tell you how to drive with minimal wear to your oil.
