There are many myths revolving around motor oil, some of which you may have been told were true. The experts at Walser Automotive Group would like to name a few of them and debunk them for you today.

One of the most common myths surrounding motor oil might be the one that claims you need to change your motor oil immediately after it turns black. This isn’t true. In fact, changing oil that frequently is actually wasteful and unnecessary.  

The second most common myth is that once you start using synthetic oil, you’re going to have to use it forever. This is also not true. You can actually switch back to traditional oil anytime you want.

The list doesn’t end here and there are many more. If you would like to know more or if you need any assistance from an expert service team, come and visit one of their 25 Service Centers located across the Twin Cities Metro.
