Why Oil Changes Matter for Trucks?
Regular oil filter and change services keep diesel and heavy-duty trucks running smoothly, reducing engine wear, improving fuel efficiency, and ensuring emissions compliance. For trucks with high mileage or post-collision repairs (e.g., rear-end damage), clean oil is vital to support engine performance and complement other repairs.
Benefits
Engine Protection: Reduces friction, extending engine life under heavy loads.
Fuel Efficiency: Improves performance, lowering fuel costs for fleets.
Emissions Compliance: Minimizes soot, supporting DPF and emissions systems.
Cost Savings: Prevents costly engine repairs and MIL light issues.
Reliability: Ensures smooth operation post-repairs like frame testing or suspension fixes.
Practical Tips
Maintenance: Follow OEM intervals; use synthetic oils for longer life.
Rear-End Damage: Change oil post-collision to support engine during repairs.
Insurance: Typically not covered unless tied to collision damage.
Cross Docking: Use for fast filter/oil delivery to keep fleets operational.
