Here at Lamb’s Tire & Automotive, we recommend replacing the oil filter every time the oil is changed, which should be done approximately every 3,000 miles (closer to 5,000 miles if full synthetic oil is used).
Some car manufacturers say that the oil filter only needs to be replaced with every other oil change. But, you have to take into account that the oil filters on most cars today have been downsized from the previously “standard” quart-sized filter to a pint-sized filter. At that capacity, the oil filters in today’s vehicles won’t perform well if you wait until a second oil change.
Every oil change service here at Lamb’s Tire & Automotive includes an oil filter change. Schedule your appointment today for a high-quality oil and filter change, along with a multi-point vehicle inspection.
