Why are oil changes so important for my Pilot?
Before we discuss a kind of maintenance schedule you should be following with your Pilot, we want you to fully understand why oil changes matter in the first place. The more you understand why, the more likely you will stick to a schedule and not skip out on important maintenance. The oil in your Pilot's engine acts as a key lubricant to make sure that friction is reduced, which in turn allows less heat to be introduced into the system. This is because many tiny parts are moving at high rates of speed, and without a good lubricant, too much friction can spell disaster for your Pilot and your own driving needs. Old engine oil can be just as problematic, as there is often a buildup of environmental elements like dirt and dust that can cause the oil to be less effective.
How often should I be getting an oil change for my Honda Pilot?
The first thing that should always be considered with this question is what the owner's manual states. This is the most important consideration, so don't forget to check the manual! However, it is also important to note that we all have different driving habits, and could potentially be driving in areas that are more prone to dust and dirt for one reason or another. That's why we also want to recommend that you discuss your driving habits with our service technicians, who can give you a better idea of what kind of schedule suits you the best. For most people, getting an oil change for their Honda Pilot twice a year, or around every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, will be your best bet for a Pilot that runs smoothly for years to come without any major issues.
what engine oil options are available for my vehicle?
- Conventional: The most common engine oil that you will have heard about is conventional motor oil. While you will find many different unique quality levels and viscosity grades, this is the kind of oil that works for every vehicle, and our team would be happy to discuss if this works for your Honda Pilot. We're a team now, and we'll work together to find you the best solution.
- Synthetic blend: As the perfect crossover between conventional and synthetic oil, synthetic blend is more resistant to oxidation and is great for low-temperature properties. For all of us here in Pennsylvania, that's something that could capture your attention, especially with how brutal our winters have been. Remember, always give us a call with more questions.
- Synthetic: For a fully engineered engine oil, synthetic oil is here with fewer impurities and better properties, made specifically with your vehicle in mind. Not only can this oil handle high and low temperatures better than the alternative, but it's more likely to last you longer between oil changes, so you may have to schedule fewer oil changes than you would otherwise.
- High-mileage: Does your Honda Pilot have over 75,000 miles? Then you may want to consider getting high-mileage motor oil, which uses a unique formula to help prevent potential oil leaks and also reduce oil burn-off. We'd be more than happy to help you figure out which oil type is right for your specific circumstances.f.
