Does changing your own oil void your warranty?
Changing your own oil won’t directly void your manufacturer’s warranty. However, if your car is damaged as a result, the repairs needed won’t be covered by the manufacturer. If you’re going to do your own oil changes, make sure to use the type of oil recommended by the car manufacturer. Oct 15, 2020
