What kind of oil does my car need?

Your car needs the specific oil viscosity and standard listed in your owner's manual, which is commonly 0W-20, 5W-20, or 5W-30 for modern vehicles. The first number followed by W indicates how the oil flows in cold conditions, while the second number indicates how it performs at high engine temperatures. In Miami's heat, using the manufacturer-recommended grade is critical so the oil maintains proper protection at high temperatures. Some vehicles also require oil that meets specific certifications like API SP or a particular dexos rating. Using the wrong oil can hurt fuel economy and even void your warranty. Not sure what your car needs? Motoro Cars' ASE-certified technicians will confirm the exact specification and use it during your $29.99 synthetic oil change with a 33-point inspection. Call Wynwood at (786) 634-2002 or Doral at (786) 633-3220 today.
