What is an Oil Change? When an oil change is performed on your car, it is the process of removing old oil and your current oil filter and replacing it with a new filter and new oil. Your engine will also be cleaned in order to prevent sludge buildup, keeping it healthy and fully operational.
Every car is different, but usually you need to have your oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Many newer cars will alert you when your engine oil is low, so you’ll know when it’s time. If not, we recommend consulting your owner’s manual to determine how often your oil needs to be changed.
At our service center, we use Genuine Toyota Motor Oil in all Toyota oil changes to prevent corrosion and foaming. So, trust us when we say having your oil changed near El Cajon, CA is a great idea!
Signs You May Need an Oil ChangeThere are a number of signs that it’s time to change your vehicle’s oil.

If you start to smell oil while driving, or you hear your engine making a metal-on-metal sound, that also could indicate that an oil change is necessary.
