The Most Critical Part of Taking Care of Your Subaru's EngineSchedule your next oil change at our CT Subaru service center near Hartford
Treat your engine well, and it will serve you for many New England miles and adventures to come. A vehicle's combustion engine needs motor oil to smoothly shift the pistons and keep the friction created by metal-on-metal contact under control. That oil must also be clean or dirt will build up, causing damage, reduced lubrication and, ultimately, a seized engine. Don't let this be your fate -- trust Mitchell Subaru to your oil change today!Â
Our squad of trained Subaru service experts will change your car oil and filter, but will also inspect oil quality and fluid levels for signs of anything that needs attention. Not sure if your engine needs conventional motor oil, synthetic oil or a semi-synthetic oil blend? Ask our service advisors! They'll also be able to provide Subaru oil change prices, including the cost of a synthetic oil change, tell you more about oil change intervals, and why the manufacturer recommends them as they do. Speaking of which...
What is the proper oil change interval for my Subaru?
 Your owner's manual will best answer that question. It lists the manufacturer's suggestion and recommendations based on the vehicle and oil type. However, for an easy rule to follow, most new cars that are less than five years old should get an oil change every 5,000 miles. Luckily for you, whether you've hit that 5,000-mile point, or charged well past it, you can rely on the service department at our Hartford area Subaru dealership to tend to it quickly!
How can I tell it's time to change my Subaru's oil?Â
- You've driven the car for over 5,000 miles.
- The oil change indicator light is on.
- You can smell burned oil.
- The engine's oil level is low.Â
- The oil appears very dark upon inspection.
Whether you're driving a certified Subaru Legacy, a used Baja, or a brand-new XV Crosstrek, you can drop it off in the pull-in service area of our Canton Subaru dealership to get yourself the oil change it needs, and answers to any questions you might have.
