Lube, Oil, & Filter Changes: The Simplest Way to Enhance Your Vehicle's Performance!

One of the most inexpensive and easiest ways to upgrade your vehicle’s performance is with a routine lube, oil, and filter change from Capitaland Auto Service! Your vehicle’s motor oil is a multi-faceted wonder! As it circulates through your engine, your motor oil lubricates, cools, and reduces friction among the working components of your engine. In the process, your oil also cleans the debris that remains behind in your engine during and after the combustion process.

You may have heard of this leftover debris referred to as “engine sludge,” and that’s exactly what this thick, toxic goop is! Black and tarry, engine sludge makes your engine work much harder by way of clogs, excess friction and overheating.

The Arch Nemesis of Your Engine: sludge!

A byproduct of the breakdown and contamination of your engine oil, engine sludge can contain myriad harmful chemicals as well as heavy metals that can endanger the life and longevity of your vehicle.
