Each time you start your Mazda’s engine, parts and components move and generate heat. Engine oil is a necessity in lubricating the engine, reducing heat and friction during the combustion process. In fact, if your engine is not properly lubricated, it would seize in minutes. As you use your vehicle, the combustion process causes engine oil to become contaminated with carbon, particles of metal, water vapor, and acid. An oil filter is in place to trap these contaminants, but when it becomes saturated the oil will begin to break down and lose its ability to lubricate the engine. Contaminated engine oil will degrade engine components, causing excess wear and sludge deposits. Following your Mazda’s recommended maintenance schedule will eliminate any excess wear and damage on your engine, significantly improving your Mazda’s lifespan.
To ensure your Mazda is performing its best, it is recommended that you check your oil levels each month and before any long trips. Completing a few simple steps can help you avoid costly repairs and unwanted issues. To get an accurate oil dipstick reading at home, follow these simple steps:
