Diesel Oil Change Service
Diesel Oil Change in Tinton Falls
A diesel engine oil change is different from a regular gas motor's oil change for several reasons. Generally, the diesel motors are in large trucks and require much more oil. Some cars run on diesel, and they need about as much oil as a regular car. Since most diesel engines are bigger, the filter is also generally larger. And, diesel oil is thicker and provides greater viscosity for the rigors of the diesel engine.
The Diesel Oil Change Process
Changing the oil in a diesel motor is the same as changing that of a gas motor. The vehicle will have a drain plug located at the bottom of the oil pan. When this plug is removed, the oil will drain out of the car. The oil filter also needs to be removed and replaced with a new filter. The location of the oil filter depends on the make and model of the vehicle. The locations differ between underneath the car or underneath the hood. After the oil is drained, the plug reinserted, and the filter is replaced, new oil is then added to the vehicle according to the car or truck's specifications.

Conventional and Synthetic Oils
Diesel oil can come in both conventional and synthetic options. Traditional oil is produced using crude oil that is found in the ground, while synthetic oils are manufactured using additives and other human-made technologies. Synthetic oils are designed to maintain viscosity longer and are harder to break down. For this reason, drivers can go longer without changing their oil when using synthetic oils. This is true in both diesel and regular motor oils.
Diesel Engine Oil Related Problems
At Shrewsbury Volkswagen, we recommend getting your diesel oil change at least every 10,000 miles or once a year. If the oil change is neglected in your diesel engine, then costly breakdowns could happen. The oil lubricates the engine and without this lubrication, the engine can have many problems and breakdowns. Dirty oil also can damage these parts, necessitating costly repairs, or a new motor. Adhering to your vehicle's oil change schedule is vital to your motor's overall health and longevity.
