If you are changing your oil yourself, you'll need a jack and jackstands, a box-end wrench and a container for the oil. You can also use the container to catch the oil. To change the oil, you'll need to drain out the old motor oil from your car and replace it with new oil. This is also the time to replace the oil filter.
It's important to change the oil or have it changed when your mechanic recommends it, which is usually about every three months or so. Depending on the model of your vehicle, you may need to change the oil when your vehicle's mileage is between 3,000 and 10,000 miles. This will keep your car from developing more serious and costly problems.
If you're a speedy driver or tend to drive on rough roads often, you may need to get your oil changed more than the recommended amount. This is also the case if you life in an area that is extremely cold or hot.
