Your Jeep Compass requires routine maintenance to keep you safe on the road. The most common service to keep your vehicle running smooth is an oil change. The very lifeblood of your engine is the oil that coats the pistons and internal combustion areas of your engine. This oil breaks down over time due to wear, engine deposits, and sludge and will change the color of the oil from a light color to an opaque, thick black color. Changing this oil at the required intervals is paramount to keeping your engine running at its’ best. Jeep requires the engine oil to be replaced every 3,000 miles or every three months, whichever comes first.
There are three different types of oil that you can use for an oil change: conventional oil, full-synthetic oil, and semi-synthetic oil. The conventional oil is the same OEM oil that Jeep uses for their Compass line. Semi-synthetic oil is a hybrid mix of OEM oil and synthetic oil to provide a higher degree of protection against engine wear. Full-synthetic oil is the highest quality oil that you can get for the best protection against engine wear.
Jeep doesn’t recommend going past the regular intervals for oil changes, as this can increase the likelihood of possible engine damage down the road. When the oil’s life is completely used up, this thick black oil offers little to no protection against deposits and harmful metallic sludge from entering your internal combustion chambers in your engine. These deposits and sludge can wreak havoc on pistons and other components and may lead to premature engine failure. The very best defense against these outcomes is to keep vigilant on your oil changes as it’s a very small price to pay now for possibly much larger prices to pay later for engine repair or replacement.
