Oil changes and lubrication - do not leave essential service components unattended!

Regular oil changes and careful lubrication of all moving parts are essential measures to ensure the service life of your engine, transmission and entire drive unit. Oil is the lifeblood of the engine - it protects against wear, prevents overheating and ensures that all components work together smoothly. In this blog post, you will learn why oil changes and lubrication are so important and what additional measures help to maximize the efficiency and longevity of your vehicle.

 

Why a regular oil change is essential?!

Engine oil performs several key functions. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction and heat, and thus protects against wear. Over time, however, the oil becomes contaminated with wear particles, soot, and other impurities. A regular oil change removes these pollutants and ensures that the engine is optimally lubricated. Without fresh oil, the engine can overheat or become damaged, which ultimately leads to expensive repairs. A regular oil change can therefore avoid high costs in the long term.

 

Gearbox and differential: Important components for a smooth ride

Not only the engine, but also the transmission and differential of your vehicle benefit from regular lubrication and maintenance. The transmission is responsible for transferring the engine's power to the wheels and must withstand extreme loads. The differential, in turn, compensates for the differences in speed between the wheels, especially when cornering. If the lubrication of these parts is neglected, this can lead to increased friction, heat generation and wear. Regularly changing the transmission and differential oil ensures that these important components work smoothly and efficiently.

 

Engine and transmission internal cleaning/flushing – Why is it important?

Over time, deposits can build up inside the engine and transmission, impairing function and increasing wear. A professional engine and transmission flush removes these residues and ensures that all components are clean and free of harmful deposits. This cleaning improves lubrication, reduces wear and ensures that the systems work efficiently. Such a flush should be carried out as part of a comprehensive service, especially if the vehicle is used under demanding conditions.

 

Clean the fuel system – For optimal combustion and performance

The fuel system, including the fuel injectors and fuel filter, is also an area that should be regularly maintained and cleaned. Over time, deposits can build up in the fuel system, affecting fuel flow and making combustion inefficient. A professional fuel system cleaning ensures that the engine is supplied with clean fuel evenly, resulting in improved performance and lower fuel consumption. Cleaning the fuel system also reduces environmental impact because the engine burns cleaner.
