Oil Changes in Kilgore, Texas

Fresh oil is one of the simplest ways to protect your engine. Oil keeps moving parts from grinding against each other, carries heat away, and holds dirt in the filter instead of in your engine. Over time heat and miles break it down, and then it stops doing its job.

East Texas is hard on oil. Long summers, stop and go driving, short trips, towing, and dusty roads all wear it out faster than a smooth highway commute does. At Kilgore Tire & Auto Care, our ASE certified technicians change your oil and filter and get you back on the road.

How often should you change your oil? Follow your owner's manual. Many newer vehicles can go longer between changes than older ones, and heavy use can call for sooner. If you are not sure what your vehicle needs, ask us and we will tell you honestly.
