The way your drive

• Try to consolidate your daily trips. This will also save you the cost of restarting your engine, which uses more petrol.
• Reduce the use of air conditioning if possible.
• When driving at speed ensure your windows are up to reduce drag.
• Go easy on the accelerator and brakes. Sudden starts or stops use more petrol than gradual changes in speed.
• Turn off the engine if you anticipate a lengthy delay.
• Remove unnecessary weight from the boot.
• Use overdrive and cruise control when possible as it will increase fuel economy.

Servicing your vehicle

• Replace the spark plugs in your engine regularly. This way, the air and fuel mixture will burn cleaner and more efficiently.
• Reduce friction by using high-quality motor oil.
• Check your oil levels. Low engine oil makes your engine work harder.
• Change your filters.
• Keep tyres properly inflated and have a wheel alignment.
• Have your car engine regularly serviced for optimum fuel efficiency.

The car’s engine is the key to the car, no matter what you do to try and improve the performance of your car such as new tyres, custom work etc., the engine will still always be the most important part of it.
Within the engine, the engine oil’s main purpose is to lubricate the moving parts, engine oil also cleans and inhibits corrosion as well as cooling the engine by carrying heat away from moving parts.

Changing engine oil

As the engine oil runs low or get’s dirty, the effect of the engine oil is reduced and as a result more wear and tear is put on the engine leading to you having to replace parts sooner rather than later. Make sure you check the engine oil levels regularly so you know when you are getting low. It is not as difficult as you may think so simply open the bonnet and check today!

This is why a regular car service of which an engine oil change and an oil filter change is important and it is important not to wait another two to three months or an extra five thousand kilometres before you come in for a service.
