The expert techs at Lexus of Santa Barbara know regular oil and filter changes help your vehicle run with optimum efficiency. Additionally, the right oil helps keep your car’s engine clean, helps reduce overall wear and maximizes its performance.

Consult your owner’s manual or the scheduled maintenance guide for information on oil change intervals.
Today’s vehicles are some of the most technologically advanced machines ever produced. Even an oil change isn’t as basic as it used to be. Our expert Lexus service technicians have the knowledge, the parts and tools, and the training to help make sure the job gets done right the first time.
An engine with little or no wear may get by on 7,500 mile oil changes. But as an engine accumulates miles, blow-by increases, dumping more unburned fuel into the crankcase (which dilutes the oil), in turn causing accelerated wear and engine problems, including: loss of performance and fuel economy as well as increased emissions and oil consumption. Thus, for peak performance you’ll want your vehicle to have an oil change. Lexus provides this essential service to all of our clients, and no one knows your vehicle better.
What is known is that regularly changing your oil is crucial for vehicle health. Due to the high operating temperatures of the engines, oil goes thermal breakdowns, becoming less effective as a lubricant. When the oil stops lubricating, parts of the engine rub together and wear each other out, leading to costly repairs and replacements. All in all, our service technicians offer a value that can’t be beat, so come in to Lexus of Santa Barbara today!
