Frequently asked questions

The best oil for your ride is the one recommended by your manufacturer—usually found in your owner’s manual or service guide. This includes the correct viscosity grade (like 10W-40 or 5W-30) and specification rating (such as API SN, JASO MA2, or manufacturer-specific standards). Using the right oil ensures proper lubrication, cooling, and protection for your engine’s internal parts.

To make it easy, OEM oil is already formulated to meet these exact requirements. It’s the same oil your vehicle was tested and designed with, guaranteeing the right performance, protection, and compatibility. When in doubt, choose an OEM Oil Change Kit made specifically for your make and model.

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) oil meets the precise standards and formulations set by your vehicle’s manufacturer—ensuring the correct viscosity, detergent balance, and protection level your engine needs. That precision means better lubrication, less wear, and cleaner operation under all conditions. Aftermarket or “universal” oils might meet general specs, but they’re not engineered for your engine’s unique tolerances and performance demands, which can lead to reduced efficiency and long-term damage.

Oil viscosity refers to how thick or thin the oil is and how easily it flows at different temperatures. It’s usually shown as a number like 10W-40—where the first number (10W) indicates how the oil flows in cold conditions (“W” for winter), and the second number (40) represents how it performs when the engine is hot. Using the correct viscosity ensures your engine gets proper lubrication on startup and under operating heat.

If the oil is too thin, it may not provide enough protection; if it’s too thick, it can cause extra friction and reduce performance. Always follow your manufacturer’s recommended viscosity grade—OEM oil is specifically formulated to match those requirements for your exact engine

Most OEM oil change kits include the correct type and amount of oil, a genuine oil filter, and sometimes additional seals or washers—everything you need for a complete, factory-quality oil change.

OEM oil often costs more because it’s engineered for your specific engine, tested to manufacturer standards, and includes the exact additive package needed for optimal performance and protection.
