Regular oil changes are one of the most affordable and effective ways to protect your engine. But how often should you come in? Here are some clear signs it’s time to schedule an appointment:
- It’s been 3,000–5,000 miles since your last conventional oil change
- You’re nearing 7,000–10,000 miles on synthetic oil
- The oil change or check engine light is on
- You hear knocking sounds from your engine
- Your oil appears dark and gritty
- You notice decreased fuel efficiency
If you’re ever unsure, just search for oil change near me, and let Sal’s handle it fast, clean, and affordably.

Types of Oil Changes We Offer
We understand different engines and driving habits require different types of care. At Sal’s, we offer the right oil for every car and every driver:
Conventional Oil Change
Ideal for older cars or low-mileage vehicles, this option is affordable and reliable for general driving needs.
Synthetic Oil Change
Best for modern engines, high-performance cars, or drivers who want extended protection and better fuel economy. Synthetic oil withstands higher temperatures and lasts longer between changes.
High-Mileage Oil
Designed for vehicles with over 75,000 miles. This oil helps reduce leaks and engine wear in aging engines.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does an oil change take?
With our express lube, 20-30 minutes are all it takes to complete your oil change, including a free inspection and filter change.
Is synthetic oil better for my car?
Synthetic oil provides superior protection, performance, and life, especially in newer or turbocharged engines. It handles extreme temperatures and long intervals between changes effectively.
Can I switch between synthetic and conventional oil?
Switching is a possibility. However, the frequent use of synthetic oil would, in the long run, provide better protection for an engine. We will assist you in deciding on a change considering your car’s needs.
How do I know if I am overdue for an oil change?
Some signs include dark oil on the dipstick, engine noise, poor gas mileage, or warning lights. If you’re unsure, search for “oil change near me” and drop by Sal’s for a free inspection.
