If you never do an oil change, then your engine will eventually become clogged with dirt and sludge buildup. This can lead to a decrease in performance of the engine, as well as reduced fuel economy and increased emissions. Over time, this buildup can also cause serious damage to your engine components, leading to costly repairs or even a complete engine rebuild.

The best way to decide when to get an oil change is by taking a “whatever comes first” approach. If you drive frequently and accrue mileage rapidly, then it’s crucial that you get your car oil changed as soon as possible, even if the suggested 6 months hasn’t passed yet. This could be especially effective for those who often commute or simply returned from a long road trip.
