1.What Does An Oil Filter Change Include?

When you go to an auto service center or repair shop for an oil filter replacement, the oil filter, and engine oil need to be replaced together.

It’s not always the case, however.

If the fuel filter is in good condition, you can just add clean engine oil. But you can’t change the engine oil entirely if your oil filter is old.

Why?

Changing the old oil with clean engine oil but not changing the fuel filter is a wasted effort. Once the new oil travels through the used fuel filter, your clean oil comes out dirty, looking like old oil.

That’s why your mechanic will first drain out your old oil by removing the drain plug (the drain plug is typically located on the oil pan). After draining your car’s oil, the mechanic will then replace your old fuel filter too.

Note: If you go to a dealership or auto repair shop, they may carry out additional services apart from changing your car’s oil and fuel filter like tire rotation, car wash, topping off fluids, etc. This can add to your total repair costs.

2. Why Does My Oil Filter Need Regular Replacement?

Your engine oil filter will gradually become clogged over time since it traps tons of contaminants like metal particles, grime, and carbon dust. Replacing the oil filter extends the engine life and keeps the motor oil clean.

A clogged engine oil filter will decrease the amount of clean oil passing through it, and as a result, you will need an oil filter replacement and new oil.
