About Our Filters & Fluid Services for Trucks & Fleets in Covington, Dayton & Greenville, Ohio
The Service Company offers comprehensive filters and fluid services at our 3 locations in Covington, Dayton, and Greenville, Ohio. Regular maintenance of your truck’s fluids and filters is essential for maintaining the performance and longevity of your heavy-duty diesel truck. Most vehicle manufacturers recommend changing the engine's oil and oil filter every 5,000 - 10,000 miles, but this can vary depending on driving conditions, the type of loads hauled, and the type of oil used. For example, road conditions such as hills and mountains, stop-and-go traffic, or consistently carrying heavy loads can cause your engine to work harder, necessitating more frequent oil changes.
Other Filter & Fluid Service Suggestions
In addition to regular oil changes, it’s crucial to check other vital fluid levels to ensure your truck continues to run smoothly. Transmission fluid, brake fluid, coolant levels, windshield washer fluid, and even tire pressure should all be checked during routine maintenance. Keeping these fluids at optimal levels is key to preventing breakdowns and maintaining the overall health of your vehicle.
Oil leaks in diesel engines are often due to the deterioration of engine parts. The most common cause is the oil gasket breaking down, usually due to sludge buildup from engine wear or damage. Another frequent cause is the oil pan, which can develop small dents from rocks, branches, and other debris kicked up from the road, eventually turning into holes where oil can leak. Additionally, if the oil filler cap is not secured properly or is missing, parts of your engine can become covered in oil, leading to leaks. The oil filter itself can also be a culprit if it wears out, becomes misaligned, or comes loose.
