Why should I change the oil filter each time I change the engine oil in my car?
There are several reasons why it is important to change the oil filter each time you change the engine oil in your car:
- The oil filter removes contaminants from the engine oil as it circulates through the engine. Over time, these contaminants can build up and clog the filter, reducing its effectiveness.
- A clogged oil filter can cause the engine to work harder, increasing fuel consumption and potentially leading to engine damage.
- Changing the oil filter at the same time as the oil helps to ensure that the engine has a fresh supply of clean oil, which is essential for lubricating the moving parts and keeping the engine running smoothly.
- Most car manufacturers recommend changing the oil filter each time the oil is changed, as part of regular maintenance. Failing to do so can void the warranty on your car.
In summary, changing the oil filter each time you change the engine oil is an important part of maintaining the health and longevity of your car’s engine.
