The Jaguar maintenance schedule includes guidelines for all of your most important responsibilities as an owner. How often should you change your oil? Today, Jaguar oil change frequency guidelines suggest a visit once every 5,000 miles or so. If you drive about as much as the average Phoenix motorist, you’ll pay our service center a visit two to three times each year.
Understanding Oil Change Frequency Guidelines in Chandler, AZ
All Jaguar vehicles made during and after 2010 require synthetic motor oil. If you’re planning to take care of oil service at home, you’ll need to pick up an approved oil product (along with a new oil filter) from our Chandler parts department. While most synthetic oil can last longer than 5,000 miles, changing your oil more often will only benefit your vehicle in the long run. And, coming in every 5,000 miles allows us to take care of all your vehicle’s most important regular service requirements at once.
When Should You Adjust Your Oil Change Frequency?
Pushing your vehicle as hard as it can go is likely to have a deleterious effect on your engine–especially if you’re not keeping up with your oil change frequency guidelines. If you regularly engage in any of the following, you may want to schedule service more often:
- Racing or performance driving
- Commercial use
- Towing or carrying heavy payloads
- Off-road driving or driving on dirt/gravel roads
What Happens When Your Car’s Oil Isn’t Changed?
Oil is often referred to as the engine’s lifeblood, and it’s not just talk. Oil lubricates all the moving parts in your engine and helps to distribute heat away from vulnerable components. Keeping up with oil change frequency guidelines protects your vehicle’s most important systems, while failing to do so puts you at a major risk for engine failure. If you want to avoid the worst, schedule service regularly and check your oil levels monthly to avoid leaks. If you notice any of the following, bring your vehicle in as soon as possible:
- Excessive smoke from the exhaust pipe
- Engine overheating
- ‘Check engine’ or ‘oil lamp’ warning lights illuminated
- Noticeable engine knocking, or frequent misfires
- Oil is burnt-smelling, dark brown, or full of small metal particle
What if I Don’t Drive Very Often?
Engine oil will break down over time, even if it isn’t being used. For some drivers, who only take their beloved Jaguar cars out on occasion, it might seem feasible or responsible to cut back on oil changes. Think again: you’ll still want to schedule oil service at least once a year. Our service specials can help to make your next visit pain-free.
