The manufacturer’s recommendation to change the oil at the dealership is not in vain

Many car owners complain about the absurdity of the factory forcing the engine oil change to be done exclusively at the dealership. This is because it is one of the simplest things in the car and this action can be done at any workshop or gas station.

Strictly speaking, they are right, because this procedure is really a simple operation. However, factories are not necessarily concerned with the exchange process, but with the oil used.

First of all, it must have the viscosity and additives recommended in the manual. But, in addition, its quality, its origin, is also very important, as its dubious origin can cause damage to the engine. And the loss is the automaker’s, the company that is responsible for the car’s warranty.
