How Am I Able to Prolong the Oil Life of My Honda?

1. Keep Your Honda at a Cool Running Temperature

When your Honda is running hot, the motor oil is more susceptible to break down, shortening oil life in the process. It helps to keep your Honda running at a cool temperature. Honda owners from Sunnyvale can benefit from putting fresh engine coolant in their SUV, car, van or truck and getting any necessary cooling system maintenance. This prevents oil temperature from rising too high.

2. Avoid San Jose Gridlock

As you head from Palo Alto to San Jose in your Honda, try to avoid South Bay gridlock. It may be best to avoid I-280 during San Jose rush hour. More time idling in traffic can cause fuel dilution that impacts the motor life in your Honda. Stop-and-go driving leads to more unburned fuel and lowers the oil viscosity. Your Honda's oil may even become contaminated. Avoid traffic congestion, when possible.

3. Replace Your Honda's Oil Filter Regularly

Some Honda owners from Los Gatos prefer a DIY oil change. Remember to not just add fresh oil but to also install a fresh Honda oil filter. With a fresh filter, you can expect prolonged oil life and clean motor oil keeping your Honda humming.
