Marlow Motor Company Has You Covered

An oil change service is a vital maintenance requirement for every vehicle with an internal combustion engine. Neglecting routine oil change services as one of the fastest ways to destroy your engine and lead to thousands of dollars and potential repairs.

At Marlow Motor Company CDJR, we provide certified service to all Chrysler Dodge Jeep and RAM vehicles, so you can drive with confidence that your service is handled properly. In addition to our factory trained technicians, we use genuine Mopar replacement parts to ensure that your vehicle continues to run like new. Let's take a look at just a few reasons why drivers in front of Royal, VA trust our maintenance and repair center for all of their CDJR oil change service needs.

Why Oil Change is So Important

Many drivers are aware that bringing their vehicle into a certified facility is important, so they'll trust any repair needs to the dealer, yet for routine maintenance services, like oil changes, and fluid flushes, they'll bring their vehicle to their local independent mechanic.

Although an independent mechanic may have an appeal because they are closer to your home or work, these facilities do not use genuine replacement parts or fluids. This means that even if you only trust an independent mechanic to change your oil, your vehicle will be running with an aftermarket oil filter, and oil that is potentially not compatible with your vehicle.

For the most longevity and reliability from your vehicle, we recommend only letting certified Chrysler Dodge Jeep and RAM technicians such as the ones at Marlow Motor Company to service and repair your vehicle.

The Type of Oil You Use Matters

There are three main types of oil, each of which offers its own degree of protection for your engine. However, it's important to understand what type of oil your vehicle uses, because not every oil is compatible with every type of engine:

Conventional Oil
Conventional oil offers the most basic protection for your engine, and must therefore be changed most frequently. Conventional oil can withstand temperatures of up to 260°F, therefore it is not compatible with many turbocharged engines. This type of oil must be changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

Synthetic Blend
Synthetic blend oil is a mix of conventional oil with synthetic additives for added protection. Synthetic blend oil can withstand temperatures up to 400°F, and often features special additives to prevent oil leaks in aging engines. Synthetic blend oil needs to be changed less frequently and often features a 5,000 to 7,500 mile change interval.

Full Synthetic Oil
Full synthetic oil offers the best protection and is able to withstand extreme temperatures, making it perfect for turbocharged and high performance vehicles. This type of oil often features a 7,500 to 10,000 mile change interval.

To understand your vehicle's exact oil change intervals, we recommend consulting your owner's manual, or inquiring with one of our Service Advisors.
