Oil Change Services in Honiton & Devon

At Harts of Honiton, we believe that regular oil changes are one of the simplest yet most effective ways to protect your vehicle’s performance and longevity. Whether you're navigating the A30 or heading out on a weekend drive through the Devon countryside, clean engine oil ensures your car runs smoothly, efficiently, and reliably.

Why Regular Oil Changes Are Essential

Engine oil is the lifeblood of your vehicle. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, and helps regulate engine temperature. Over time, oil degrades and becomes contaminated, which can lead to increased wear and tear or even engine failure. That’s why we recommend routine oil changes as part of your vehicle’s ongoing care.

Here’s what a regular oil change helps with:

• Prevents engine wear and tear Old oil loses its viscosity and protective qualities, allowing metal parts to grind together. Fresh oil cushions these components, reducing friction and extending engine life.

• Improves fuel efficiency Clean oil allows your engine to run more smoothly, reducing resistance and helping you get the most out of every litre of fuel.

• Reduces harmful emissions Dirty oil can cause incomplete combustion, leading to increased emissions. Fresh oil helps your engine burn fuel more cleanly and efficiently.

• Protects against overheating Oil helps dissipate heat from the engine. When it’s old or low, your engine can run hotter, increasing the risk of damage.

• Extends the life of your vehicle Routine oil changes are a small investment that can prevent costly repairs and keep your car running well for years to come.

What’s Included in Our Oil Change Service?

We don’t just swap out your oil—we perform a full check to ensure your engine is in top condition. Every oil change at Harts of Honiton includes:

• Draining and replacing engine oil We remove the old, degraded oil and refill your engine with premium-grade oil that meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications.

• Installing a new oil filter A fresh filter traps dirt and debris, preventing them from circulating through your engine and causing damage.
