Turlock Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram
Regular oil changes are one of the most important maintenance services you can perform for your vehicle. Fresh engine oil helps lubricate moving components, manage heat and carry contaminants toward the oil filter so your engine can continue operating as designed.
At Turlock Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, our technicians provide professional oil and filter service based on your vehicle's specific engine and manufacturer requirements. We service Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles as well as other makes and models.
Whether your vehicle is due for routine maintenance, you're checking your oil more often than usual, or you have questions about the correct oil for your engine, our service team can help you determine what your vehicle needs.
Your vehicle can provide clues when oil maintenance is overdue or when there may be an underlying engine or lubrication concern.
Your maintenance reminder indicates that an oil service is due.
Oil that has become heavily contaminated or degraded may need attention.
A level that drops faster than expected can indicate consumption or a leak.
Oil spots beneath the vehicle can indicate a leak that should be inspected.
New or unusual engine noise can be a reason to have oil level and engine condition checked.
A burning-oil odor can indicate an oil leak or another condition that needs inspection.
Engine oil does much more than keep components slippery. As oil circulates through the engine, it helps reduce friction and wear, carries contaminants toward the filter, helps manage heat and contains additives designed to help protect engine components.
Over time, oil can degrade and become less effective. Regular service helps maintain the lubrication and protection your engine is designed to receive.
A proper oil service combines the correct engine oil with a new filter and an opportunity to identify other maintenance concerns.
The appropriate oil type, viscosity and specification depend on the vehicle and engine requirements.
The oil filter captures contaminants as oil circulates through the engine and should be replaced as part of routine oil service.
An oil-change visit is an opportunity to identify other maintenance needs before they become larger problems.
Oil selection should be based on your vehicle's engine and manufacturer requirements rather than simply choosing the most expensive oil.
Conventional motor oil is refined from mineral oil and may be specified for certain engines and applications.
Synthetic blends combine conventional and synthetic base oils and may be specified for certain vehicle applications.
Full synthetic oil is highly refined and may provide characteristics suited to engines with specific performance and operating requirements.

The correct oil depends on the vehicle and engine requirements. Check the owner's manual or manufacturer maintenance information for the required oil type, viscosity and specification.

Check the oil level according to the procedure in your owner's manual. If the level is dropping faster than expected, have the vehicle inspected for a possible leak or other concern.
