Oil Change Service in Columbia, MO

Oil Change Service

We at Woody's Auto Center in Columbia have been performing oil changes on vehicles since 1957. During an oil change service, our Reliable technicians will replace your engine oil, oil filter, and inspect the fluids in the engine bay and potential leaks.

There are two different types of engine oil: conventional and synthetic. There are big differences between the two. Conventional oil is made from petroleum based products and synthetic oil is made from petroleum or synthetic-base stocks. Some drivers prefer synthetic oil over conventional oil due to how it is formulated to help provide advanced protection against major causes of engine stress, such as heat build up, too much friction, and deposits. Conventional oil is more prone to thinning at higher temperatures and thickening in lower temperatures. However, these problems can be prevented as long as you get your oil change when it is time to get so instead of putting it off.

Signs you need to get an oil change service:

Depending on the type of oil you use on your vehicle and the amount of miles on the odometer, there is a regular schedule that should be followed when it comes to getting an oil change.
