The amount of time it takes to perform an oil change at home on your own will vary depending on your experience. Budget an hour, at least, out of your day. To change your oil yourself, you’ll need new oil, a new OEM oil filter, a rubber mallet, wrenches, a jack, and wheel blocks. More often than not, it’s easier and more efficient to visit a service department in Keyport to have your oil changed. 

Keep these tips in mind when it’s coming time for your oil change: 

• Every 3,000 miles used to be the marker for getting your oil changed, nowadays the interval is extended due to improvements in oil formulas and the mechanisms of vehicles. New vehicles can go 5,000 – 7,500 miles between oil changes, and some models can even go up to 10,000 miles. 
• Our service specials page frequently offers oil change coupons and other discounted services.
• Confirm your vehicle-specific intervals and the type of oil, synthetic or conventional oil, in your owner’s manual.

If you are in a hurry, you can schedule an appointment in the Ford Quick Lane to get your vehicle maintenance done quickly.
