Can the wrong oil damage my engine?

Yes, using the wrong oil can damage your engine and even void your warranty. If the viscosity is too thick or too thin for your engine, the oil may not flow or protect properly, leading to increased wear, poor fuel economy, and overheating. Using oil that does not meet the required specification, such as the wrong API or dexos rating, can also harm modern engines with tight tolerances and emissions equipment. In Miami's heat, the correct high-temperature viscosity is especially important so the oil maintains its protective film. This is why it pays to have a professional confirm the exact oil your vehicle needs. Motoro Cars' ASE-certified technicians always match the manufacturer-specified oil during service. Get the right oil and protection with our $29.99 full synthetic oil change and 33-point inspection. Call Wynwood at (786) 634-2002 or Doral at (786) 633-3220 to book.
