Is it necessary to warm up the car after an oil change?

[LaDominic]

It is not necessary to warm up the car after an oil change, but warming up the car before an oil change is recommended. Here is some information about engine oil: 1. Engine oil is often referred to as the lifeblood of the engine. Inside the engine, it not only lubricates but also cleans, seals, cushions, prevents rust, and dissipates heat. 2. During normal engine operation, the oil forms a protective film on the surfaces of various engine components. This reduces friction between parts and minimizes operational resistance. Without oil, the engine cannot function properly. 3. Engine oil needs to be changed regularly. If left unchanged for too long, its lubricating properties degrade, which can accelerate engine wear.
