Oil Change – Bridgend

An oil change is the most fundamental maintenance job a vehicle needs, and also one of the most frequently stretched beyond its recommended interval.

Engine oil degrades with use and time, losing its ability to protect internal components. Leaving it too long doesn’t just increase wear; it can lead to sludge build-up, increased fuel consumption, and in serious cases, significant engine damage.

How Often Does Your Car or Van Need an Oil Change?

For in-warranty vehicles, we follow the manufacturer’s service schedule with the correct interval for your specific engine and usage pattern, and for those post-warranty, we work to the manufacturer’s guidelines as a baseline, with a maximum of 12 months or 12,000 miles between changes. If your car or van is working hard with heavy loads, stop-start urban routes, or extreme temperatures, more frequent changes may be appropriate.

The Right Oil For Your Vehicle

Not all engine oils are interchangeable. Modern diesel car and van engines have specific viscosity and performance requirements, and using the wrong specification can affect engine protection, fuel consumption, and DPF function. At South Wales Wet Belt & Service Centre, we always use the correct oil grade, whether that’s a long-life synthetic for a newer engine or a conventional mineral oil for an older commercial.
