Why are Oil Changes Important?
Oil has several primary functions including:
- Keeps parts moving easily, thus reducing heat from friction in the engine.
- Captures and removes metal particles, dirt, and debris, moving it all to a filter where it will be trapped.
- Extends your engine’s longevity.
When you get an oil change service, we will drain all the old dirty oil and replace the filter so the oil can help your engine be more efficient and it doesn’t work as hard. We will also update your vehicle’s service record so you can keep track of how long until your next oil change.

At ALM Hyundai West we recognize that not everybody has the DIY luxury and skill. Your vehicle needs clean oil to function its best and that’s why we offer quality oil changes with our factory-trained technicians.
